Karun Chandhok and Bruno Senna both achieved race finishes for the HRT F1 Team in today's Chinese Grand Prix with the Brazilian finishing in 16th and the Indian in 17th position.

It was a wet race where many drivers came unstuck and retired in the rain, but both HRT F1 drivers kept control to bring their cars home in competitive positions.

Karun Chandhok: "I am fantastically happy to have finished this race again today after our difficult debut in Bahrain and it was not easy today with the rain. Because of a necessary change of hydraulic components on the car, I had to start from the pit lane. This change was profitable as the car was fully operational until the end of the race. It was a bit difficult as we had less front grip and I was struggling with it. Because of the rain I went off a couple of times but I made it to the finish. For the team it is encouraging to finish with both cars again. A great thank to the team. To finish was very difficult today but I am happy I have done it."

Bruno Senna: "I am very happy to finish the race again. We had no experience in really wet conditions like today and the car was a bit difficult to drive. The ceiling was low and it got a bit dark. Overall, my visor was a bit too dark for those conditions. I enjoyed racing on the wet track. I'm happy for the team who did a great job again to have another two cars finishing the race."

Dr. Colin Kolles, Team Principal: "A good day for the team completing our second two-car finish in the rain in our fourth race. Karun Chandhok and Bruno Senna drove their second wet race after Australia. Again we reached our goal with two cars finishing the race and we gathered quite a lot of data on this track that can be used for the European season. Congratulations to the team. Now in the three weeks to come, we must work on more developments for the team's home Grand Prix in Barcelona."
