Niko Hulkenberg summed up the results of the first two days of work on the tests. German racer believes that Sauber C32 great potential in the upcoming season the team will be able to claim good results.

Niko Hulkenberg: "In General, I feel comfortable in the car. The first two days that I spent at the team, allowed us to learn some of its features, get used to them. On the track I had to make sure that I am comfortable that the seat is well fitted, the wheel fits comfortably in the hand and the like. . .

We were convinced of the reliability of the machine: two days of tests do not have any problems. We have successfully completed an extensive test program, but we need to continue to develop the car. In Formula 1 it is impossible to stop.

I think we will be competitive. While I don't see any big problems. When I looked at the monitor to estimate the time to the circle, it seemed to me that we have the skills - the difference between the pilots was a few hundredths!".

The Sauber does not have its own simulator, but Niko Hulkenberg sees no problem in this: "to be honest, I without him comfortable enough. You are right, usually by this time of the year you can manage to drive a decent distance on the simulator, but I don't have any problems in order to work on the track".
