Hulkenberg believes the restart rules deployed during the Australian GP were 'artificial' and not in F1's DNA.
Following a red flag triggered by Alex Albon's Turn 6 crash in the Australian GP, the Melbourne race was stopped for a second time with three laps to go after Hulkenberg's team-mate Kevin Magnussen hit the wall at Turn 2 and his broken wheel rim left debris on the track.
A lengthy delay ensued, including a debate about the grid positions for the final one-lap run to the flag behind the safety car. The FIA eventually decided to use the order from the previous start, which left Hulkenberg in seventh. Hulkenberg remained in the cockpit throughout, and said that he was reminded of his victorious Le Mans 24 Hours one-off with Porsche in 2015 as he "was almost I think close to three hours inside the cockpit".
"You've worked all race long, you only have like a couple of laps left and then you're supposed to do a whole race start again.Max Verstappen, Red Bull Racing RB19, Lewis Hamilton, Mercedes F1 W14, lead the field away at the restart"There was an Aston [Fernando Alonso] that got turned around, but he was lucky he could come back to the race.
