Paul di Resta admits that this weekend’s Singapore Grand Prix is likely to throw up one of his largest personal challenges of the year. Heading into the Marina Bay race, the Scot is entangled in a battle to end the season as the highest-placed debutant driver; he currently leads Sauber’s Sergio Pérez by four points for 15th overall.
“It’s true that Singapore is probably going to be one of the more difficult tracks to get up to speed on because it’s such a long lap,” explains the Force India driver. “Also, with any street circuit you need to build up your confidence over the weekend.
“I definitely enjoy the challenge and you have to take a slightly different approach. It’s all about having as much time in the car, so that you can push right to the limits of the track. We will also need to keep any eye on the weather because any rain storms could hamper things. I just hope we get some dry weather while I learn the track.”
In order to increase track time for di Resta and Adrian Sutil, Force India have elected to leave reserve driver Nico Hülkenberg on the sidelines during Friday practice.
