Question: Giancarlo, how satisfied are you with your season so far? How satisfied are you with the car?
Giancarlo Fisichella: So far it’s been a tough season again. Actually we expected to be much more competitive - even looking for points - but unfortunately it is not like that, mainly because the car was ready quite late and then we found some problems with the downforce. In fact we’ve not got enough downforce. We’ve taken a few good steps through the season, especially with the double diffuser in Bahrain. This really meant a good step forward and I have to say that the team did a good job, but it was not enough. We need another big step forward like that. Otherwise it will remain tough.
Question: At the moment Force India are the only team not to have scored points. It seems to have been a mixture of bad luck and lacking that little bit of extra pace. When do you realistically think that points can come your way?

Giancarlo Fisichella: Hopefully on Sunday. But realistically it is difficult - almost impossible. But then you never know. We need another big step, I would say in the half-second range, to move forward on the grid and have a better pace in the race.
Question: Last year’s Monaco Grand Prix was a highlight for the team with Adrian Sutil almost finishing fourth. Do you think something similar could happen on Sunday, considering the characteristics of this track?
Giancarlo Fisichella: You are right, in Monaco you never know. If it’s wet, and the weather forecast says there is a chance of rainy conditions, then you need a good strategy to deliver a good race result.
Question: How do you see your future in Formula One racing? Force India test driver Vitantonio Liuzzi reportedly said that he has been assured of a race drive with the team next year…
Giancarlo Fisichella: Ah, that’s good for him! Obviously I want to see an improvement with the car and I can assure you that I am still motivated, I still enjoy racing. Let’s see what the future brings. For now, I am fully concentrated on this season.
