Budapest: When Sahara Force India's Adrian Sutil will line up on the grid for the Hungarian Grand Prix this Sunday, it will be his 100th GP but the German is approaching the milestone race in a very sedately manner.
"It's hard to believe how quickly time goes by. It's a big milestone, for sure, but in the end it doesn't really change anything. My goals remain the same as when I started my first event and that is to win races. I still love the sport and I hope I can continue to drive these amazing cars for a long time," the German said.
Sutil has never scored points in Budapest and is looking forward to break the duck this time but at the same time he is little apprehensive since Pirelli will introduce new tyres for the race.
"It's difficult to say because its the first race with a new tyre construction. The track is tight and we need to qualify well because there are not many opportunities to overtake," he said.
Meanwhile, Team Principal Vijay Mallya says the results in nine races so far have exceeded their expectations. Force India are fifth in the constructors championship, 10 points ahead of McLaren (49).
"I think the first nine races have probably exceeded the expectations we set ourselves over the winter. The first mission was to start the year well and that's what we've done. In fact, its been our best start to a season ever: we've shown good pace and had some excellent races," Mallya said.
