Perez and Hulkenberg: "Not an easy race"

Force India on the edge of the top ten

Ninth and tenth position for the two Force India di Sergio Perez e Nico Hulkenberg in Spanish GP 2014.
The Indian team takes home some points, aware that the Barcelona track would not have worked in their favor. Like other teams, the Force India drivers had to deal with the high degradation of the hard tires and consequently with the right time to decide on the stops and the best strategy.
With top ten finishes in all races and 57 points under her belt, the Force India heads towards Monaco with fourth place in the Constructors' standings.

“We knew from the start of the weekend that this track would not be favorable for us, so getting both cars into the points is a good result,” he said Nico Hulkenberg.
“The degradation of the tires was notable and consequently the car was not easy to drive, but I think that towards the end of the race everyone had problems in this sense”.
“I thought we would have to make a third stop but fortunately it wasn't necessary and I managed to cross the finish line in tenth. We will use all the data accumulated to improve for the next races, hoping to be a little more competitive."

“It was a difficult afternoon,” confirmed his teammate Sergio Perez.
“My pace in the race was very good and the tire degradation was not excessive, so I thought we could have been a little more aggressive in choosing the strategy... Maybe if we had stopped earlier I could have gained a few positions, but overtaking was not an option. easy anyway."
“Given the circuit that isn't very congenial to us, the result obtained is more or less what we expected,” concluded the Mexican. “Seventh or eighth position was perhaps within our reach but we must still be satisfied with the points obtained”.
