F1 career, Nico Hülkenberg had never tasted podium champagne. That changed at Silverstone, an achievement celebrated up and down pit lane.

Hülkenberg pitted on Lap 9 for another set of Intermediates, and continued working his way through the field. His final stop came on Lap 42 for a set of mediums, and he was eventually running third with Lewis Hamilton closing fast.

Nico Hülkenberg has finally made it onto the podium with third place at the British Grand Prix. That ends the longest wait in career starts for a driver before claiming a top-three finish in Formula 1 history.
