Mixed results for Force India at the end of this second day. Paul Di Resta finishes 14th in qualifying and is pleased with his lap time and the performance of his car.<\/p>\n
Adrian Sutil is also satisfied with his car, but gearbox problems prevented him from securing a better position on the starting grid.<\/p>\n
The Indian team remains optimistic for tomorrow’s race, especially since the weather is likely to make an appearance during the Grand Prix.<\/p>\n
Adrian Sutil – 17th:<\/b><\/p>\n
Q1 wasn’t too bad and I was positive. But we didn’t improve in Q2, which was a bit surprising. I know the team is working hard and trying to solve the issues before tomorrow’s race.<\/p>\n
Paul Di Resta \u2013 14th:<\/b><\/p>\n
The team did a very good job. I think it was a very good lap on my part. We are better than we thought, and I believe we have closed the gap. But tomorrow will be a long race, with tricky weather conditions. However, I am certainly very excited about our progress and the future improvements.<\/p>\n

\u00abOur objective was to maximize our performance in qualifying by using the soft tires only when necessary. Fortunately, none of our drivers were hindered by the red flag in the first part of the qualifications, and they both made it to Q2.\u00bb<\/p>\n
\u00abAs we showed in the last race, we can score points from this position. Unfortunately, Adrian had issues with his gearbox which cost him a better lap in Q2.<\/p>\n
We hope for a strong race to take advantage of the opportunities that will certainly arise tomorrow. With the upcoming developments and Q3 being only a few tenths away, we will work as hard as possible to be consistently in Q3.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
