Felipe Nasr believes that Sauber still have work to do if they are to close the gap to rivals in dry conditions.
The Brazilian finished the British Grand Prix in 15th place after his pace dropped of as the track began to dry out following a pre-race downpour.
"Initially I had a decent pace on the Medium tyres, but after the track completely dried out the lap times were determined by our car's performance," he said. "We are still not there where we want to be; we will keep fighting for points."
Nasr's team mate, Marcus Ericsson failed to finish the race, with an electrical issue ending his afternoon early.
Just making the grid was a remarkable feat for Ericsson and Sauber, after the Swede suffered a huge crash in the final free practice session on Saturday morning.
"I want to say a massive thanks to my car crew for rebuilding my car," Ericsson said. "They did an amazing job and it was great to be back in the car, which was important after such an accident. I felt comfortable in the car, [but] it was disappointing that my race did not last long."
