Paul di Resta, Force India
2011 Qualifying - 11th, 2011 Race - 18th
“It’s quite an unusual track with some long straights and you need good top speed to be competitive. We run a special low-downforce package, similar to the one we use for Monza, so the car feels quite different and a bit loose without all the downforce. It always takes a few laps to get used to things again.”
Nico Hulkenberg, Force India
2011 Qualifying - n/a, 2011 Race - n/a
“It’s one of my favourites and I love Montreal as a city. There’s a good atmosphere because the whole place gets behind the race and the city is always full of fans. It’s quite an unusual circuit being a mix between a permanent track and a street circuit, so there are lots of corners where the walls are very close. It’s easy to make a mistake because you have to use the kerbs and get close to the walls to get a good lap. It’s two years since I raced there, but I was able to do Friday practice last year.”
Dr Vijay Mallya, Force India team principal
“As for Canada this weekend, we’ve had good and bad times in Montreal in recent years. We were competitive there in 2010, but last year I believe we threw away some certain points. Hopefully we’ll redeem ourselves this year.”
