Eddie Jordan On Force India

"Force India are one of the big surprises of the year - they have improved significantly after a poor start to the season.

"A lot of people thought they would struggle after losing technical director Mark Smith to Lotus, but that hasn't happened.

"They are a very honest team; they tell you how it is.

"They have done a good job with their drivers - they had three very, very good drivers there this year in Adrian Sutil, Paul di Resta and reserve driver Nico Hulkenberg and I think they have been fair with them.

"That's why you saw Hulkenberg doing his media work without being disgruntled, even though he had to step back from a race seat at Williams last year.

"His loyalty is being rewarded with a race drive in 2012 alongside Paul di Resta, who has had a very impressive rookie season."
