Video: Hulk talks testing and what he's up to next week

Nico Hulkenberg concluded his running with Renault on a positive in Barcelona yesterday note after spending two weeks getting to grips with the team's new R.S.17.

The German driver's moment of respite will be short lived however, with just enough time for a quick laundry clean before he heads south to Australia.

He's optimistic for this year although he admits that scoring points on a regular basis will be a tall order for the French outfit in 2017.

Hulkenberg posted his comments on testing and what he's up to next week on Twitter. Check out the video below.

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
