Nico Hulkenberg will be a Renault driver next season after opting to leave Force India for the French manufacturer. He had some fun in announcing it as well, posting the above image of him at a Renault dealership on Instagram, which came after a cheeky photo on Twitter which ignored the headline announcing him as a Renault driver.
