Paul Di Resta is a major talent....when he went head to head with Sebastian Vettel in Formula 3, he was clearly better and spanked him.
I predict this young fellow will rise quickly....won the Mercedes DTM championship last year. Hopefully Force India will give him a decent car to get in a strong rookie year.
Some strong family bloodlines too....he is first cousin to Dario and Marino Franchitti, and joins a long list of scottish racing talent that has made it to the big time.
Good luck Paul !
