FORCE INDIA - FORMULA 1 - A CASE OF SO NEAR YET SO FAR

HELLO,

As usual a case of so near yet so far. Adrian Sutil finishes at 10th place and the old canny warhorse Giancarlo Fisichella finished 12th. Just outside the points you can say.

But now the aim for points looks feasible.

This finish is considered encouraging as it was achieved without the advantage of retiring cars. The fact that Adrian was right behind Mark Webber and just 13 seconds adrift the Brawn of Jenson Button speaks volumes about the improvement in the car.

Adrian was sixth fastest on Friday morning and again in the afternoon.
He was fastest when Saturday morning’s session. While the top teams tend to run heavier fuel loads in that session, it was clear that the update was working well.

He said “I think it was a strong race, and I’m really happy with it. I have done a few other races which were similar and maybe even had a better position in the end. But here almost nobody retired. And it was a dry race, and normally we’re strong in the wet races."

Attention now turns to Spa, one of Adrian’s favourite tracks and a place where he has shown well with much less competitive cars than he currently has. He’s looking forward to it.

So now on to 30th August. All Force India fans look forward to it.

Hoping to see the zero against Force India to make it's exit.

Best wishes,

Manoj
