Renault Sport Formula One Team's Nico Hülkenberg fought superbly through Saturday afternoon's qualifying for the Canadian Grand Prix and as such made his way into the third and final qualifying session.

After setting the sixth fastest time in the morning FP3 session, Nico made his return to Q3 with a 1:13.271 and will start tenth on the grid for the 2017 Grand Prix du Canada.

“I am quite pleased with P10, I think this is as good as it could get for us this afternoon,” he said. “Yesterday it looked like we had quite a bit of work to do, then this morning looked much better. Now we have to put our heads down, push hard and work for some points tomorrow.”
