Fernley hails "fantastic" Force India result

Force India's Deputy Team Principal Bob Fernley has spoken of his delight at yet another double-points finish for the Silverstone team, after Sergio Perez and Esteban Ocon finished fourth and fifth respectively in Spain on Sunday.

The squad has now scored with both drivers at every race of the season thus far, and the 22 points it collected in Barcelona has helped it retain a clear fourth place in the Constructors' Championship - it currently trails only Red Bull, Ferrari and Mercedes.

Fernley was keen to praise this achievement alongside the work of the entire team, both on and off the circuit: "The 22 points scored strengthens our hold on fourth place in the championship and continues our 100% points-scoring record in every race this season.

"We are now the only team to have achieved this and that is a huge credit to the hard work of the race team and factory. It was a fairly routine race from our perspective with mature drives from Sergio and Esteban.

"They kept their noses clean and managed their pace to bring home our best result of the year so far. This consistency is a real strength of the team and we can feel very satisfied with our performance over the first quarter of the season."
