2023 Fantasy Outlook
Hülkenberg is eager to return to a Formula One car as a full-time driver since his departure from the series in 2019, despite his recent filling-in for Sebastian Vettel at Aston Martin at the beginning of 2022. The German brings a lot of on-track experience (181 F1 starts) to Team Haas, in direct contrast to previous Haas driver and 2021 rookie Mick Schumacher, who could not quite muster up enough of a successful season last year to keep his seat with the team. In previous seasons with Renault and Force India, Hülkenberg has consistently been a Top-10 finisher, and Haas Team Principal Guenther Steiner is hopeful that the driver of the No. 27 car can call on some of his previous proficiency behind the wheel to deliver a satisfactory performance for Haas in 2023.

Finding consistency
Hulkenberg finished seventh in the Las Vegas Grand Prix F1 race at the Las Vegas Strip Circuit on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Hulkenberg came out of a wet qualifying session in a decent position for points and started 11th on the grid after missing out on Q3 by over half a second. He began the race on hard tires -- in contrast to much of the field that utilized mediums -- and ran the longest opening stint of the race to gain some track position. Hulkenberg ultimately finished ninth on the road, but he was promoted to seventh after both McLarens were disqualified. He now has points in three of his last four grand prix.
