A podium finish only just eluded Force India&rsquo;s Paul di Resta in yesterday&rsquo;s Bahrain Grand Prix with the Scot finishing fourth to match his best ever F1 result. <img alt="Paul di Resta" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/apr/Paul-di-Resta.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 700px;" /> Paul di Resta Di Resta, who had started fifth, made good use of a two stop strategy but could do nothing to stop Romain Grosjean&rsquo;s Lotus, which was significantly faster, from overtaking him with only six laps to go. &ldquo;I think I&rsquo;ve got to be very happy with it. You always want to get on the podium but it will come soon enough,&rdquo; di Resta told journalists. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s twelve points taken with both hands. But I think looking at every session this weekend, I think we&rsquo;ve performed to the 100 per cent maximum we could have done.&rdquo; Force India&rsquo;s form all weekend backs up the speed the team showed two races back in Malaysia and highlights the car&rsquo;s strength in hot conditions. <img alt="Paul di Resta" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/apr/Paul-di-Resta1.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 376px;" /> Di Resta&rsquo;s fourth-place finish yesterday moves the Silverstone-based squad ahead of McLaren &mdash; who have had a tough start to their year &mdash; in the constructors&rsquo; championship but di Resta expressed caution ahead of the next race in Spain as the former world champions are known for bouncing back from a slump. &ldquo;We know McLaren are going to bounce back. But we&rsquo;ll keep pushing as much as we can. We&rsquo;ll be praying that the sun&rsquo;s out and shining quite hard (in Barcelona).&rdquo; u00a0
