Ah, gotcha! Not Nick Heidfeld, but

Nicolas "Nico" Hülkenberg (born August 19, 1987 in Emmerich, Germany) won the A1GP season finale in Brands Hatch. Hülkenberg made his karting debut in 1997, at the age of 10, and competed in various events globally until his 2005 formula debut in German Formula BMW. His formula debut was a very successful one, with Hülkenberg dominating the championship and winning the title comfortably.
He is one of the race drivers for A1 Team Germany in the A1 Grand Prix series, he has dominated the competition this season, winning the first six Feature races so far in his rookie season, making him the most successful driver in A1GP history. He has also led more laps than any other driver in the sports short history.
Hülkenberg is currently managed by Willi Weber, the long-time manager of Michael Schumacher. Weber has gone on record saying that Hülkenberg should have a Formula One seat by 2008. He has also praised Hülkenberg as an "unbelievable talent" and says he reminds him of Schumacher as a young driver.


So where do you reckon he'll be in 2008? And will he get a race seat or just some test driver deal?

Heh. He'll replace Sutil. Sutil's great, he's the F1 whipping boy - like Pizzonia, or Wilson

I remember how he did better then Kimi at Sauber, he's not slow, he's probably just a win away from being a possible WC...

You just don't get it bud, eh? I'm driver focused - I don't worry about which car/team. Besides, RD is talking about retirement, which will be a relief!
