Hulkenberg remains humble after fifth place finish in FP2

Nico Hulkenberg managed to get his Renault into fifth place during Friday's FP2. In the process, he beat Max Verstappen's Red Bull and finished miles ahead of his teammate Daniel Ricciardo.

Following the session, he believes he shouldn't read too much into the result.

“If a Friday is good I’m not one of those guys who reads into it too much. I think other people didn’t reach their full potential today," a contained Hulkenberg said in an interview with RaceFans.

Despite his good result, he wasn't pleased with how the car was running. From what he says, it sounds like he had more of a result like Ricciardo, who finished P15 in FP2.
