Adrian Sutil, Force India
2010 Qualifying - 10th, 2010 Race - DNF
“I hope that I will be able to finish the race as last year the gearbox let us down. It is
always a good feeling to finish the first race, as you then know that the season has really
started. It was a crazy race in Australia last year when the rain came in; I think only ten
cars made it to finish. This is also why I think it is so important to finish the race in
Melbourne - there are usually points to be won if you see the chequered flag.”
Paul Di Resta, Force India
2010 Qualifying - n/a, 2010 Race - n/a
“I am very excited obviously, but it is a strange feeling as the first race was
cancelled and everything was prepared for that. But the last few weeks have
been pretty seamless and I am fully prepared for the race in Australia. I enjoyed
the track last year and Melbourne is a great city.
“I am open minded and will be concentrating on performance, getting the best out
of the car on the Friday and Saturday to see what areas we need to improve as a
team for the race. As for my personal expectations I am going to be realistic and
gauge how it goes over the weekend and focus on the job in hand.”
Dr Vijay Mallya, Force India chairman and team principal
“2010 was an exceptional year for the team, 68 points overall, seventh
in the championship with only teams who had previously won world titles
ahead of us, which demonstrated we are still on target to achieve our
goals. And this year there is even more to be optimistic about.
“We have an experienced technical team that have the ingenuity, flexibility and
drive to adapt to the new wave of rule changes, and we also have the tools and
resources in our partnerships with McLaren Applied Technologies and Mercedes-Benz
High Performance Engines to aim even higher. Andrew Green, our new technical director,
is responsible for the VJM04 and it has shown some promising signs during
pre-season testing.
“We have race drivers who are hungry to take the next steps in their careers, whether
that be points, podiums or wins. Paul proved his mettle in DTM and for the team last
year, making valuable contribution to the development of the VJM04 with his simulation
work. Nico (Hulkenberg) joins as test and reserve driver having taken pole position in Brazil
in his rookie season in 2010 and we are glad to start our long-term relationship together.
Adrian scored 47 points for the team last year and finished just outside the top ten. He is
one of the most consistent young drivers and we are very pleased that he is with us for
Source : official Formual1.coma fifth consecutive race season.”
