Nico Hülkenberg was one of the feel-good stories of 2024. Haas climbed from the bottom of the constructors’ standings to seventh, and Hülkenberg played a pivotal role in that turnaround. He scored points in 12 of the 24 races and qualified in the top 10 on 11 occasions.
While a podium finish remains elusive for Hülkenberg, his consistency was remarkable. He finished 11th seven times, proving he was always on the cusp of breaking into the points. If given a front-running car, it’s easy to imagine him becoming a regular podium contender.
7. Fernando Alonso
