F1: Paul Di Resta would be allowed to move on

Paul Di Resta has been promised no-one at Force India will stand in his way should a big team come calling this season.

The Scot is enjoying his strongest start to a season since he first arrived in Formula One in 2011, scoring points in six of the seven grands prix so far.

That includes equalling his career-high best performance of fourth in Bahrain in April, enabling him to rack up 34 points and lie eighth in the drivers’ standings.

Although Di Resta has a contract with Force India for 2014, there is no doubt he is putting himself in the shop window for a move.

Deputy team principal Bob Fernley has confirmed the Silverstone-based team would release Di Resta if an offer comes in.

“Paul is contracted to us anyway for next season, so the question is whether somebody else comes in, so it won’t be our decision,” said Fernley.

“Whether Paul has to be released, or whatever, that can only come from him. But we wouldn’t stand in his way. That’s not our policy. If a driver feels he is better somewhere else, what would be the point in keeping him?”

Fernley is convinced the team can continue its run of form on Sunday at the British Grand Prix at Silverstone which has propelled them to fifth in the constructors’ championship.
