LONDON - Nico Hulkenberg's breakthrough podium for Swiss-based Sauber at the British Grand Prix will boost belief in the future Audi works team, according to principal Jonathan Wheatley.
The 37-year-old came third at Silverstone for the German's first podium finish in 239 starts - an achievement many thought would never happen for a driver who made his Formula One debut 15 years ago in 2010.
He also started 19th on the grid in the chaotic and rain-affected race, another element that made his success even more surreal.
"Really for me, what I've taken from today is people start believing in us," Wheatley told a much bigger crowd of reporters than usual outside the Sauber paddock hospitality after the race on July 6.
"I can say the words. I can say we're gaining momentum. I can say we're putting performance on the car."
