“I think that the track record of performance speaks for itself,” he said, “I'm very proud that, amidst my sceptics and critics when I set the road map going forward, I think we've achieved everything we said we would. In fact, I think we've over achieved. We have consistently punched above our weight - that is the mantra, the philosophy of this team.
“There's a huge amount of passion and a lot of talent in Silverstone, but more importantly there is a commitment and a hunger to succeed. I think the fact that we've signed two of the finest young drivers in F1 is a reflection of our own attitude. All the designers, engineers and everyone else at Force India feels the same way as our drivers: we are hungry, we're out to prove a point.
“I have to say that I was a very, very happy man up until Silverstone, when we were running fifth in the championship. We couldn't get on top of the tyre changes when they came about but, until then, to be running in front of a world-class team like McLaren was quite an achievement.
“We're throwing everything we possibly can at the design of the 2014 car and we were one of the earliest teams to sign a full powertrain package [with Mercedes], so all these things are helping and hopefully will work to our advantage.”
