Sergio Perez continued Force India's run of points finishes, as the Mexican came across the line to finish seventh, bringing home six points for his team.
Perez drove sensationally to cut through the field as he started the Grand Prix from all the way down in eighteenth but made the task look easy. It is Force India's thirteenth consecutive race in the points, something Perez says they can be extremely proud of.
"I’m very proud of my team today. To finish seventh after starting from P18 is an amazing recovery and we can be very happy tonight. It’s also our thirteenth consecutive race in the points, which is an incredible achievement.
"The first lap was very important for my race because I made up five places and was up in P13 by the end of lap one. I had great tyre life in the first stint; we stayed out as long as we could and the safety car played into our hands just when I needed to make a pit stop. So I think we made the most of every opportunity and the whole team – the engineers and the mechanics – played their part in executing a perfect race.
"We showed, once again, that we never give up on Sundays and we can come back strong after a difficult qualifying. We know there are still areas where we can improve and that there is more speed to come from this car, but for now it feels good to have both cars in the points for the third race this season.”
