Two safety car periods in a dramatic Silverstone race propelled the German veteran (left) from 19th on the grid up to fourth.

He then flew past Lance Stroll and kept Lewis Hamilton at bay to finally make it to an F1 podium in his Sauber.

Hulkenberg’s wife and daughter were watching from home and three-year-old Noemi screamed with joy at watching her dad pick up his prize on TV.
