PROFILE
Adrian Sutil

2010 marked Adrian Sutil’s fourth year in Formula 1. He started off with Spyker which was bought by Force India and he has remained with them ever since.

With the departure of Giancarlo Fisichella from the team last season, Sutil took over the mantle of the team’s number 1 driver. Known to be brash in his driving style, making many a mistake and daunted by ill fortune in crucial moments he has nevertheless got results for the outfit. None can forget that two of Sutil’s most promising race finishes were thwarted by collisions with Kimi Raikkonen – Monaco 2008 and Germany 2009.

Nevertheless, the German has matured and consistently been in the points in the 2010 season and has become a strong mid-field contender. He has showed signs on occasions that he can upset world champions every now and then. Raikkonen was flummoxed twice as pointed out and this year in the Malaysian GP, the German driver held off Lewis Hamilton for numerous laps and finished in fifth.

As the season headed for a break in August, he is ahead of veteran Rubens Barrichello in the championship table and is edging towards seven-time world champion and compatriot Michael Schumacher as well. It remains to be seen whether he can keep both the ex-Ferrari drivers behind him.

With his strong performances, he has easily emerged as the star driver of the outfit.
