"I think all the conditions are there for us to be strong in Spain. I'm sure points will be within our grasp as long as we find a good set-up and we will work with this in mind." Teammate Karun Chandhok is also in a hurry to return to racing, the Indian driver also impatient to secure more points for the remainder of the championship. "It's not exactly my favourite track but Valencia has some interesting features. It is one of the most demanding circuits on the brakes and this is a real challenge in itself. I'm confident that I will be able to fight with the front runners. The coming month will be very intense and I am very important to gather more experience," explained the Indian driver. Hot temperatures should prevail throughout the Valencia weekend, with a maximum set to exceed 30°C with clear blue skies.
