168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Nico Hulkenberg called Jonathan Wheatley and Mattia Binotto after Audi’s huge managerial shake-up, he exp⛄lained.

Hulkenberg returns to the F1 Dutch Grand Prix this weekend driving for Haas, having been an under-the-ra🦩dar overachiever all season.

Next season he will switch to Sauber, who will evolve into Audi in 2026, but the giant German manufacturer has made crucial changes to its manage♏ment structure.

Red Bu🤡ll sporting director Wheatl♍ey will join Audi as the new team principal, while former Ferrari team principal Binotto will join as the COO and CTO.

Andreas💞 Seidl, the CEO, and Oliver Hoffman, the chairman, have left Audi.

“The surprise was the whole change of strategy there, that Seidl and Hoffman were leaving. It was unexpected a♉nd big news,” Hulkenberg admitted at Zandvoort, where mahbx.com are in the paddock.

Hulkenberg said about Wheatley: “He is very capable, very qualified, he comes from Red Bull who have been dominant. He will be a strong addition to the teamღ and the project. I called him after the summer break.”

He also made contac💖t with Binotto who is returning to F1 after leading Fe💖rrari.

“H✱e is only star🅺ting now, after shutdown,” Hulkenberg said.

“It is early days, he is arriving and needs a picture of the current situation, an understanding of different d൩epartments.”

However♎, the🤪 German driver insisted his focus remains with current team Haas rather than on the goings-on at his next employer.

Hulkenberg was asked how much attention he has given to the changes at Audi, a𒀰nd he answer🥃ed: “None. Not much. It’s just phone calls, it’s not a lot of energy or attention.

“There is always information w🐭hen you network with people. It’s always interesting to know what’s up in the paddoc🀅k.

“But I am fully 💞invested in this season still. We want to bounce back this weekend and, in the remaining races, score as many points as we can to secure seventh place♒.

“We are dreaming of ⛦attacking sixth place ಌbut it won’t be easy.

“It doesn’t just depend on us. It depends on w♊hat RB do. I🌌f they are strong and scoring, it will be difficult. If they’re not… it will change the situation and the picture.”

Haas, who finished bottom of the constructors’ championship last seaso💎n, have been rejuvenated this year.

Hulkenberg’s experienced drives are a key 🐭reason behind their newfound form.

The 37-year-old has scored points🍰🦩 on five occasions.

Haas’ evolution will continue under new team boss Ayao Komatsu in 2025 when Hulꦬkenberg and teammate Kevin Magnussen exit, making way for drivers Ollie Bearman and Esteban Ocon.
