Nico Hulkenberg has been impressed with Renault's response to their engine issues which they had earlier on this season. The team seems to have fixed the reliability issues which plagued their first few races. They have slowly become more consistent and results have started to improve. Hulkenberg has praised the way his team has turned things around.  

“They found solutions very quickly, redesigned it, remade it and made all of the necessary corrections,” he is quoted by France’s Auto Hebdo.

“It was pretty impressive, and in Monaco, we could feel that the engine came back to life and we were able to fight properly. So it’s very positive.”

Renault are currently 8th in the constructor's championship and will be hoping that they can start to finish in the points more regularly. 

The Canadian Grand Prix should offer Renault an opportunity to get back in midfield contention as they look to compete with a number of competitive midfield teams.
