Adrian Sutil believes that his eighth spot on the grid for the Hungarian GP is another example of Force India's continued improvement.
The German driver qualified on the fourth row for the second grand prix in a row, a considerable achievement especially when one considers that both the Nurburgring and Hungaroring are circuits that have not traditionally favoured the team.
In past years it has been predominantly the low downforce tracks in Canada, Spa and Monza that have been the venue for Force India's best performances.
Sutil feels that this week and last have highlighted Force India's overall improvement.
"I'm very pleased with my qualifying and it feels great to be starting from eighth for the second race in a row," he said.
"This morning in final practice things did not look so good because I was struggling with a general lack of grip. We changed quite a few things for qualifying - obviously the right things - and this afternoon the car felt really good and I found the lap times we felt were possible.
"In the past the Hungaroring has not been a track where we have been very strong because it's a maximum downforce track, so it feels great to show once again that our car is competitive everywhere," he added.
