British Grand Prix “Pi” Riddle Was Even Deeper Than Expected

Hulkenberg celebrating 'surreal' ending to F1's longest ever wait for a podium

This race was held in Great Britain on the 6th of July, written as 6/7 across the pond.

Nico = 67 Caps Added and Reverse

67 is the 19th Prime number
Nico started 19th on the grid

This means Hulkenberg went from 19th to 3rd.

"Hulkenberg" = 193 (Reverse Caps Added)

193 is the 44th Prime number, and Hulkenberg was 44 days before his birthday. 4/4 was the opening date for the World Trade Center.


It’s been 23 years, 9 months since the September 11th attacks:

Last year, I made this post after Hulkenberg signed for Sauber, explaining how it was all synced up to The Tower card of the Tarot’s Major Arcana.

This was Hulkenberg’s 239th Grand Prix
239 is the 52nd Prime number

Hulk drives for a team representing Switzerland.

Hulk and Switzerland both = 52

He was born on a date with a Life Lesson number of 52:(8) + (19) + 1+9+8+7 = 52

The name Nico Hulkenberg is pretty similar to Nico Rosberg, who was another German F1 driver up until the 2016 season, when he rode off into the sunset with the World Driver’s Championship.

"Nico Erik Rosberg" = 520 (Latin)

Rosberg was born on 27/6 of 1985:

Nico = 276 and Hulkenberg = 1985


Rosberg on its own sums to 314. "Rosberg" = 314 (Latin)

The number 3.14 is of course known as PiSeptember 11th, 2001 was also the publishing date of the famous book Life of Pi:


Pi Riddle

Earlier in the week, I suggested that we may see a surprise finisher on the podium. Check out this post I made several days before the race, which pointed out a significant alignment for Alex Albon to collect Williams Racing’s first podium in nearly 100 Grands Prix.

3+1+4 = 8
Alex Albon finished 8th

Instead, it was Nico Hulkenberg, who started his career for Williams, who secured the surprise podium finish, the first for Sauber Motorsport since all the way back in 2012. As has been the theme for me in 2025, I was able to pick up on the riddle, but couldn’t pin down exactly where it was pointing.

Alex Albon was born a span of 3140 days after Nico Hulkenberg:

Hulkenberg made his Grand Prix debut in Williams machinery on March 14th, or 3/14:

Sauber Motorsport’s first Grand Prix entry was also on the date 3/14:

It will also be 2634 weeks after the Williams F1 team’s first Grand Prix:

Nico Hulkenberg was born a span of 314 days before Nico Rosberg’s birthday:

The British GP was 3143 days after Rosberg clinched the title (or 31 weeks, 4 days after the date):

Sunday’s race was also 449 weeks after Rosberg’s championship:

449 is the 87th Prime number
Hulkenberg was born in ’87

"Nico Erik Rosberg" = 87 (Reduction)

It’s been a span of 8700 days since the Twin Towers were destroyed:


One of the first numbers with Ordinal gematria of 314 is 322.

"Three hundred and twenty two" = 314 (Ordinal)

The British GP was 322 days after his birthday and 3 months, 22 days after the anniversary of his F1 debut:

Collapse of the World Trade Center and The World Trade Center both = 322


Kevin Magnussen

Towards the end of the British Grand Prix, the two Haas cars collided with one another, sending them into a hilariously-synchronized double spin before both were able to rejoin and finish the race:

Last year, I made this post after Nico Hulkenberg, who was driving with Haas at the time, collided with his Haas teammate Kevin Magnussen at the Monaco Grand Prix. That incident was also a riddle connected to September 11th.

Well, guess who just happened to be a special guest of the Sauber garage this weekend? It was Kevin Magnussen, who was able to cheer his former colleague on to his shocking third-place finish:

This was the 1137th F1 Grand Prix

"Kevin Magnussen" = 1137 (Standard)

His full name Kevin Jan Magnussen sums to 1908.

"Kevin Jan Magnussen" = 1908 (Latin)

Nico Hulkenberg was born on the 19th of August, or 19/08:


When it comes to podium finishes, Magnussen’s career holds a similar distinction to Hulkenberg’s. While Nico had to wait nearly his entire career for his one-and-only podium finish, Magnussen scored P2 in his very first Formula One Grand Prix – and then never got to the podium again.

Magnussen’s one-and-only trip aboard the rostrum was at the 2014 Australian Grand Prix, which was appropriately won by none other than Nico Rosberg.

This year’s British GP was 4130 days after the 2014 Australian Grand Prix:

"Nico" = 413 (Fibonacci)

This weekend also saw the 413th Grand Prix started by record holder Fernando Alonso:

Recall how these digits were also embedded into Nico’s signing with Sauber.

News of the new deal came out when he was 13400 days of age:

He was born on the date leaving 134 days in the year:


"Magnussen" = 653 (Standard)

653 is the 119th Prime number

Kevin Magnussen was a span of exactly 1119 weeks of age for his only career podium:

The British Grand Prix was held exactly 11 years, 16 weeks later:

Rosberg was a span of exactly 16 years, 11 weeks old on 9/11/01:

September 11th used to be the 7th month of the Roman calendar (“sep” means “seven of”), meaning the date could be written as 7/11.

Nico Rosberg is a span of 7 years, 101 days older than Magnussen:


More Notes

Pi = 49 in three ciphers

Nico Rosberg was 40 years, 9 days of age on Sunday:

Hulkenberg, Magnussen, and Peter Sauber all = 49

The 49th Prime number is 227

September the eleventh = 227 and 1433, Nine eleven Two thousand one = 2207

1433 is the 227th Prime number

Nico was a span of 14 years, 3 weeks, 3 days old for September the eleventh:
