Paul di Resta quadrupled his championship points yesterday. The Brit's 7th place finish was worth six points. "I'm very happy with the seventh place," said Di Resta. "It was quite a mixed race with rain at the beginning, but I made a good start and felt comfortable in the conditions. Then it was a matter of which tyres to choose. We went to supersofts for the middle two stints, and then ended the race on the primes. We lost track position at the last stop, but I was able to pick through the cars and get back up to seventh place in the final few laps."

"Finishing seventh is the best way to respond after a series of races where, for various reasons, we didn't get the results that were possible. So it's nice to go into the summer break with a smile on my face having scored points that are so important for our position in the championship."
