Biography
Adrian Sutil Biography
Adrian Sutil, Spyker F1 car (2007)
After a disastrous first season, it is a surprise that Adrian Sutil has lasted as long as he has in Formula 1. But fast forward seven years and the 31-year-old has proven to be a consistent performer, and an ever present at Force India.
Like many drivers at the back of the grid, Sutil wasn’t expected to be any more than a one season wonder when he signed for Spyker in 2007. He was notorious for crashing, but he was kept for 2008 when Spyker turned into Force India and he began to show flashes of talent.
His forte is wet weather racing and in Monaco he ran as high as fourth in the worst car on the grid in torrential conditions, before Kimi Raikkonen crashed into him and dashed any chances of a remarkable points finish. Still, Sutil had shown there is more to him than had previously been seen.

Force India clearly saw talent, as they kept Sutil on and off until 2013. He grew with the team and helped turn them from being the slowest car on the grid, to regular point’s finishers.
With age came experience and consistency, and Sutil was without doubt Force India’s leading man. His performances were rarely acclaimed, but you knew he would finish where he should. In 2010, he scored more than double the number of points of his team-mate, Vitantonio Liuzzi, while in 2011 he beat the much hyped Paul di Resta.
But like most consistent drivers, Sutil was never fancied as a race winner or a driver who could do something out of the ordinary. The German is a driver who will do what he should, nothing more and nothing less.
So 2012, Force India replaced him with Nico Hulkenberg but brought him back immediately in 2013 when the Hulk left for Sauber. However, it was clear that Force India has outgrown their former star and he left for good at the end of that season.
A miserable year at Sauber beckoned, where no points were scored in a dismal car. The team, blighted by financial problems, decided against keeping Sutil for 2015 which could end a consistent but not spectacular F1 career.
