Toro Rosso has clearly made a huge step since Japan. We\u2019ve also made a bit of a step with the upgrades we brought to India. But at the end of the day you never know until the last race is over.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe found that out painfully last year when Williams pipped us by one point, but now I think we\u2019re comfortably in sixth position, ahead of Toro Rosso as well as Sauber. But it\u2019s never done until it\u2019s done,\u201d Mallya said.<\/p>\n<p>Adrian Sutil is confident of a good show this weekend saying the Yas Marina track suits their car.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was a difficult race for us last year, but I think this year it should be much better. There are long straights and hairpins, and it\u2019s a track where low-speed corner performance counts. That should suit our car so I think we\u2019ll be okay,\u201d the German observed.<\/p>\n<p>Paul Di Resta also felt that the team can look forward to a good result.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a very technical circuit with a lot of tight, low-speed corners and you need to be very precise with the car. There are definitely some similarities with Singapore so that\u2019s a reason to be optimistic because the lack of high-speed corners seems to suit our package,\u201d the Scot said.<\/p>\n<p>The Hindu<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abu Dhabi: With just two races to go in the season, Sahara Force India has a 10-point cushion against close rivals Sauber and Toro Rosso but the team is not taking the sixth-place finish for granted.
