Nico Hulkenberg explains 'frustrating' crash in Brazil

SAO PAULO, Brazil -- Nico Hulkenberg says his crash in second practice was down to wanting "a bit too much" from the car.

Hulkenberg lost control of his car and hit the wall while climbing the hill from the Juncao corner which leads to the start-finish line. It put the Renault driver out of the rest of the session, with the car damaging both its right wheels and suspensions in the process.

Explaining what happened, Hulkenberg said: "I ran a bit too wide at the exit of the last corner, took a little bit too much kerb there, wanted a bit too much probably.
