YEONGAM: Sahara Force India drivers put up a strong show in the qualifying session today as Paul di Resta secured ninth place on the grid and Adrian Sutil 10th for Sunday’s Korean Grand Prix here.
Resta’s single untimed lap in Q3 moved him to ninth ahead team mate Sutil, who did not venture out as a strategy to save tyres for the race.
“It’s good to make Q3 and it puts me in a strong position tomorrow, especially starting from the clean side of the grid. For the race the important thing is to be aggressive with our strategy because there are some fast cars behind us, including a Mercedes, and we need to work hard to keep them at bay. That won’t be easy because I expect the DRS zone to be quite effective here,” Resta said.
Sutil defended his decision of not doing any lap in Q3. (PTI)
