Force India: Di Resta and Sutil's comments after qualifying in Spain

In qualifying for the Spanish Grand Prix, Paul Di Resta qualified in tenth place ahead of teammate Adrian Sutil in 13th position.
  
Paul Di Resta: “I think we can be quite satisfied with tenth place because we achieved our objective, access to Q3. I wasn't able to get my best in Q3, because it was difficult to optimize the final sector, but we are still in a good position for the race. Tire wear will play a big role tomorrow because this place is one of the toughest tracks for the tyres. Hopefully it works to our advantage and we can make some progress with a good strategy and not spend too much time in the pit lane. There will obviously be a lot of cars behind me on new tyres, so the race into the first corner will be crucial.”
 
Adrian Sutil: “Q1 went well and my run on the hard tires gave me some good information on the mediums. Then Q2 was a bit disappointing because my position on the track for the race is not ideal. Vergne came out of the pits just as I was starting the flying lap and I had Nico Hulkenberg behind me. Webber was also on a fast lap and it was difficult to find a gap. I think this is the main reason why I missed Q3, because we had the pace to be in the top ten. I'm sure my car will be competitive tomorrow, but it's so difficult to overtake here and qualifying position is very important."
