Sutil aims to make it a special 100

8220;But I never give up. I like it here and try to make it better and still believe we can make it8230;this year we had some opportunities,it was close.

8220;But it8217;s just that you are so on the limit to be in this area of finishing in the top three,one little mistake and it8217;s already gone. Whereas with a top team you can do mistakes and you finish still on the podium easily.8221;

Sutil finished fourth in Italy in 2009,after starting on the front row for the first and only time in his career,and this season has a best of fifth in Monaco.

Dropped but back

He missed the 2012 season,dropped by the team at the end of 2011 after a nightclub fracas in China involving a broken champagne glass,but returned this season to partner Britain8217;s Paul Di Resta.

The tall German said he felt comfortable in the Silverstone-based team,which has gone from Jordan to Midland to Spyker to Force India. McLaren8217;s Jenson Button won in Hungary in 2011 in his 200th race and Sutil,without being superstitious,hoped his 100th could be marked with a big step up for him.

Sutil brings some sponsorship to the team but his future at Force India beyond this season remains open. He said he knew where he wanted to go and was confident in his qualities as a driver.
