Nico Hulkenberg continued his recent run of impressive form by setting the sixth fastest time in the final part of qualifying for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Hulkenberg will line up fifth on the grid as a result of Kimi Raikkonen being excluded from qualifying after his Lotus failed post-qualifying scrutineering.

This qualifying performance marks the fourth time in a row and fifth in the last six races that Hulkenberg has qualified in the top 10. He’s has finished four of the last five races in the points, an impressive feat in a car that earlier in the season was well off the pace.
