Adrian Sutil has said that he considers the former champions, McLaren, his direct rivals.
He said that this is a testimony to their team - how they have evolved and are direct rivals to one of the most successful teams in F1 history, FHM India magazine reported.
The 30-year-old sportsperson said that McLaren are only a couple of points ahead of them, so they are going to try their best and try and score as many points as possible.
Sutil has been a part of the Force India team since the beginning of the team's formation.
