Force India confirm Paul di Resta for 2011 Formula One season

London , Thu, 27 Jan 2011 ANI

London, Jan 27(ANI): Force India has signed 24-year-old Scot Paul di Resta as a full-time driver for the upcoming Formula One season.

 

Di Rest has stepped up from the test and reserve role he enjoyed last year, and will now partner German driver Adrian Sutil.

 

Nico Hulkenberg, who last year drove for Williams, has taken on the test role.

 

Force India chairman and team principal Vijay Mallya said that he was delighted with his line-up, as they bid in their fourth season to build on last year's seventh place finish in the constructors championship.

 

"Adrian has matured into one of F1's most consistent and highly-rated young drivers, while Paul is, I believe, a real star of the future," the Daily Mail quoted Mallya, as saying.

 

"He has won in every category in his career, and this base speed was in evidence when he got in the car on Fridays last year. With Nico, signing him was too good an opportunity to let by."

 

"He showed a good racing head and talent, and I was amazed by his control in Brazil last year (when he secured pole position). Together I think they are a formidable partnership and will help take us to the next level of performance," he added. (ANI)
