Suzuka: di Resta will not ride

Paul di Resta, who was able to take the wheel of the VJM03 on several occasions this season, will not drive at Suzuka. Force India chose not to give a wheel to its reserve driver during the first free practice session, leaving the starters (Adrian Sutil and Tonio Liuzzi) to occupy the seat from the first driving session. “ I will not ride in the first Suzuka session, for similar reasons in Singapore, confides the Briton. It is an important moment of the season and everyone must play the game in the interest of the team, in order to give it any advantage whatsoever. Additionally, the team has several aerodynamic developments, so Adrian and Tonio need time to try them out and provide feedback for the race. »
