Adrian Sutil, who fell out with Lewis Hamilton after the latter didn't give evidence at his assault trial last year, said on Thursday that he has yet to make up with his erstwhile friend.

Sutil, whose best result to date is a fourth place at the 2009 Italian Grand Prix, has certainly set his sights high. "I had a good season in 2011 and I want to compete with the best this year. The goals are much higher; I saw what I could so better, analysed everything and I want to win races," he asserted. "I want to go to the top. I have clear goals in my life and I'm here to win races and win Championships and I'll work twice as hard to reach my goals. The 30-year-old has had just one day an F1 car - in Barcelona last week - in the last 15 months but asserted: "I'm fit. I'm very clear in my head. I know what I want. Of course, fitness in the car, I've had practice for just one test so far but I was always living very healthy in the last year and did a lot of sports. "So from that point of view, I've no doubt I'm in really good shape."
