Nick Lars Heidfeld (born May 10, 1977 in Mönchengladbach ) is a German racing driver . He competed in the Formula 1 World Championship from 2000 to 2011 . He completed most of the races for the Sauber racing team based in Hinwil , which competed for some time as BMW Sauber . His greatest success, in addition to a pole position and a total of eight second places, was fifth place in the 2007 overall ranking. Heidfeld is also the driver with the most podium places (13) in the history of Formula 1 (as of 2019) who did not win a race .

From 2012 to 2016 he drove in the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) for Rebellion Racing . He now only sporadically competes in long-distance races for Rebellion in the North American SportsCar Championship .

He also competed in the FIA Formula E Championship from 2014 . Here he initially drove for Venturi in the debut season , from 2015 to 2018 he was a regular driver under contract with Mahindra .

Heidfeld became German Formula 3 champion in 1997 and Formula 3000 champion in 1999 .

Career

Beginnings in motorsport

Heidfeld began his racing career at the age of five when he took part in motocross races with his brothers (Tim, Sven ) in a club . After an accident in which his leg was trapped between the mudguard and the bike that was still running, his parents forbade him to play because he almost lost a calf muscle.

Karting

As a six-year-old he would have liked to go karting by his own admission . But karts were too big for him: “But I was too small. There were always bars like this at the rental kart tracks: Anyone who could run underneath was not allowed to drive. ” After a trip to the Nürburgring , he convinced his parents in 1984 that they could try again. A blanket and two tires helped to bridge the gap to the steering wheel. When he then overtook his father Wolfgang and kept him far behind, he was promised to buy his own kart, which in 1985 marked the leap into motorsport.

In the kart club in Kerpen-Manheim he also competed against Michael and Ralf Schumacher, among others . A WDR documentary from those years shows the very childish Nick still sitting on the lap of Mother Schumacher, who was running the clubhouse at the time. During this time he took part increasingly in club championships as well as national and international races.

Beginnings in motorsport

In 1994, Heidfeld switched to the Formula Ford 1600 monoposto class. In his first season he won eight of nine races, thus securing the title with ease. He also won the championship in the next stage in Formula Ford 1800 in 1995. Heidfeld moved to the next higher class, Formula 3 , in which he won three races in 1996 and was third in the championship. At the international Formula 3 Masters in Macau he achieved pole position and race victory . In 1997 he finally won the German Formula 3 title, which earned him the support of Mercedes-Benz .

Thanks to this support, Heidfeld tested a Formula 1 car from the McLaren Mercedes team for the first time in December 1997 and switched to the international Formula 3000 championship , in which he competed for two years for the McLaren junior team, West Competition . In addition, he continued to test sporadically in Formula 1.

In his first Formula 3000 season , Heidfeld had good chances for the title after three wins before the final. In the last race, however, his pole position was not recognized due to a mistake by his team, so he had to start from the back. Instead, the Colombian Juan Pablo Montoya won the Formula 3000 European Championship.

In 1999 , Heidfeld won the championship with four wins and a record number of points. He achieved more points than runner-up Jason Watt and third-placed Gonzalo Rodríguez together. Since McLaren team boss Ron Dennis could n't offer the young German a cockpit in Formula 1, Heidfeld signed the Prost Grand Prix with the French Formula 1 team , which was led by former world champion Alain Prost .

Cheers (2000)

In his first Formula 1 year , Heidfeld remained pointless, but this hardly damaged his reputation as a fast young talent, given the heavy, torsionally weak chassis of his racing car and the hardly better performance of his experienced team-mate Jean Alesi . His best result was eighth place in the Monaco Grand Prix , for which there was no point at the time. Since Prost lost the Peugeot factory engines at the end of the season , Heidfeld looked for alternatives early on and switched to the Swiss Sauber team for the 2001 season .

Clean (2001-2003)

Tests in winter already showed that Sauber had built a considerably better car than Prost in the previous year. Heidfeld was able to score regularly and achieved his first podium at the race in Brazil . At the end of the season he was eighth in the drivers' championship. In September 2001 there was a temporary upset with his former sponsor Mercedes-Benz, as McLaren had decided to sign Heidfeld's team-mate Kimi Raikkonen for 2002 . The young Finn scored fewer points than Heidfeld, but convinced Ron Dennis above all because of his extraordinary performance in relation to his experience.

After the 2001 season, in which Sauber was able to achieve fourth place in the constructors' championship, the following two years were less successful. In 2002 Heidfeld drove alongside Formula 1 newcomer Felipe Massa , against whom he was able to prevail within the team, but the competitiveness of his car was limited. In the 2003 Formula 1 season , Heidfeld drove alongside Heinz-Harald Frentzen , who was also from Mönchengladbach . After the results didn't improve noticeably, Sauber decided to swap the two for the 2004 season .

Jordan (2004)

Heidfeld accepted an offer from the Jordan team for the 2004 season. He only came in the points twice this year and ended up with 3 points in 18th place in the overall standings. His best result was a seventh place at the Monaco Grand Prix .

Williams (2005)

"Quick Nick" 2005 in the Williams FW27 BMW V10

At the turn of the year 2004/2005 he was the second regular driver for Williams . Since some experts, such as Hans-Joachim Stuck , had awarded him racing competence, but had discussed any personal profile, this came as a surprise. Only the former Formula 1 driver and BMW Motorsport Director Gerhard Berger spoke out in favor of Heidfeld. In order to be allowed to drive at Williams, Heidfeld had to take part in direct comparison tests against the previous test driver Antonio Pizzonia , which he was able to clearly surpass. At the end of January 2005, Frank Williams officially announced that Heidfeld would be the second regular driver alongside Mark Webber .

Heidfeld received high praise from BMW Motosport boss Mario Theissen in connection with his public appearance: “Nick did an impressive job. He deserved the second cockpit with his sovereign performance. ” During the 2005 season, Heidfeld drove on a par with Webber. His second place in Monaco and his first pole position at the Nürburgring are the highlights of the season . From the Italian Grand Prix , Heidfeld was replaced by Pizzonia. At first Heidfeld was unable to start due to a training accident, later he had to pause due to another injury.

BMW Sauber (2006-2009)

Four times second in the BMW-Sauber F1.08, here at the Canadian GP

After BMW parted with Williams as an engine supplier and decided to build its own team by taking over the Sauber racing team , Heidfeld was also brought on board. In addition to him, ex-world champion Jacques Villeneuve was signed for the 2006 season , but he could not convince and was replaced during the season by the team's previous test driver, Robert Kubica . Heidfeld established himself with his team in the midfield and was able to collect points regularly. The goal for the 2007 season was formulated to be among the top four in the constructors' championship.

In each of the first three races of the 2007 season, Heidfeld achieved fourth place and established himself as the third force behind Ferrari and McLaren right from the start. The team was able to hold this position through the season and in the end - due to the disqualification of the McLaren team - even took second place among the constructors. At the Canadian Grand Prix , Heidfeld achieved the best result of the season when he finished second behind winner Lewis Hamilton . This result was also the best result in team history. Heidfeld's good result was overshadowed by a serious accident of his team mate Kubica, who had to pause at the next race.

On August 21, 2007, BMW Motorsport Director Mario Theissen announced that Heidfeld's contract for the 2008 season had been extended. At the end of the season, Heidfeld finished fifth in the drivers' world championship and so he only had to admit defeat to the Ferrari and McLaren drivers.

The 2008 season started successfully for him with a second place in the Australian Grand Prix . In the further course he was inferior to his teammate Kubica several times, especially in qualifying. At the Canadian Grand Prix , Kubica even scored the first victory for BMW Sauber after Heidfeld was in the lead for several laps. He finished the race in second place. Heidfeld, who had also finished second in Great Britain and Belgium , did not succeed in winning a race in the rest of the season either. At the end of the season he finished sixth in the drivers' world championship. Internally he was defeated by Kubica with 60 to 75 points.

Although Heidfeld was defeated by his team-mate, he also competed for BMW Sauber in the 2009 season . At the beginning of the season, Sauber used the KERS energy recovery system , but was unable to compete for the world title. Nevertheless, Heidfeld already finished third in the second race in Malaysia . After the race had to be stopped due to heavy rain and could not be restarted, the previous lap was counted for the race result, in which Heidfeld finished second. Since less than 75% of the race distance was covered, the drivers only received half points. After the team could not make up the deficit at the beginning of the season, BMW announced after the Hungarian Grand Prix that they would get out of Formula 1 at the end of the year. After this decision, Heidfeld scored points in another four races. In the overall standings he finished 13th with 19 points, exactly one place ahead of Kubica, who scored 17 points.

Mercedes / Pirelli (2010)

On February 4, 2010, the Mercedes Grand Prix announced that Heidfeld would take on the role of test and reserve driver for the team in the 2010 season . In the middle of the season, Heidfeld was released from Mercedes to switch to the tire manufacturer Pirelli as a test driver . He was also president of the GPDA drivers' union that season until he left Mercedes .

Clean (2010)

From the Singapore Grand Prix , Heidfeld returned to Sauber Motorsport and replaced the Spaniard Pedro de la Rosa . This was the third time Heidfeld was under contract with the Swiss. At the Japanese Grand Prix he achieved his first place in the points with an eighth place, which was also his best. In the final stages of the race, he let his team mate, who had better tires due to his strategy, pass without any resistance in seventh place. Heidfeld contested five races for Sauber in the season, in which he could not keep up with his teammate Kamui Kobayashi from the points (six to eleven) . However, he was able to score as many points as his predecessor de la Rosa in fewer races. The qualifying duel also ended with one to four against the German, who only had a comparable engine at his last Grand Prix. At the end of the season he finished 18th in the drivers' world championship.

Renault (2011)

Heidfeld in qualifying for the Malaysian Grand Prix

For the 2011 season, Heidfeld was initially not under contract with any team, but a return to Mercedes as a test and reserve driver was considered quite safe. After his former teammate Robert Kubica was seriously injured in a rally accident, Heidfeld was traded as a possible replacement until Kubica had fully recovered. As a result, he took part in test drives for the Renault team, in which he achieved a best time of the day. In mid-February he was signed by Renault to replace the failed Kubica, where he drove alongside Vitaly Petrov . After missing points at the season opener after a collision through no fault of his own that significantly damaged his vehicle, he finished third in race two in Malaysia . He managed to keep Red Bull driver Webber behind in the final laps. At the fifth race, the Spanish Grand Prix , he did not take part in qualifying due to a technical defect and had to start from last place on the grid. During the race he showed a few overtaking maneuvers and improved to eighth place. After senior staff at the racing team were not satisfied with his performance, Heidfeld was replaced by Bruno Senna after the Hungarian Grand Prix . Within the team, Heidfeld was just ahead of Petrow with 34 to 32 points. At the end of the season he finished eleventh in the world championship. After Heidfeld's departure, the team tied less and less to the initial successes and the two drivers only scored another seven points.

WEC and ALMS (since 2012)

For the 2012 season, Heidfeld moved to the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) for Rebellion Racing . There he competed in a Lola - Toyota in three races in the LMP1 class as a team with Neel Jani and Nicolas Prost . At the 24-hour race at Le Mans , he and his two teammates finished fourth overall and won the ranking of the private drivers.

In 2013 , Heidfeld continued to compete in the FIA ​​World Endurance Championship and also in the American Le Mans Series , where he finished 2nd in the overall standings with Neel Jani .

Heidfeld also started for Rebellion in the 2014 season .

Formula E (since 2014)

In 2014/15 Heidfeld returned to formula racing and competed for Venturi in the newly founded FIA Formula E Championship . In the first race, the Beijing ePrix , he collided on the last lap of the race in a duel for victory with Nicolas Prost and had a serious accident, but was uninjured. In the second ePrix in Putrajaya , Heidfeld did not finish after an accident. In the following race, the Punta del Este ePrix , he achieved his first point placement with tenth place. Heidfeld was now in the lead in this race, but fell back with two drive-through penalties. At the next race in Buenos Aires ePrix , Heidfeld received a drive-through penalty while in the lead; he finished eighth. At the ninth race in Moscow , Heidfeld achieved the first podium finish with third place. He finished the season in twelfth place in the overall standings.

2015/16 joined Heidfeld in Formula E to Mahindra Racing . At the season opener in Beijing he was third. For the third race he did not start due to injury and was represented by Oliver Rowland . He finished the season in tenth place overall and prevailed internally with 53 to 52 points against his teammate Bruno Senna. For the formula e 2016/17 Heidfeld stayed with Mahindra Racing. This time he was third in the season opener, which took place in Hong Kong . At the end of the season he finished seventh in the drivers' championship with five third places as the best results.

In 2017/18 Heidfeld competed again for Mahindra in the FIA ​​Formula E Championship. Once again, third place was his best result of the season, again in Hong Kong . At the end of the season, he finished eleventh in the drivers' championship. For the new season he no longer received a contract as a regular driver, but remained with the team as a special consultant and became a test and replacement driver.
