Fisichella positive on end of the season

Renault's 2007 and current driver Giancarlo Fisichella is looking forward to race in China. The Italian believes the car will be competitive at the Shanghai International Speedway.

"The car's competitiveness was very good in Monza and the one-stop strategy worked well for us," said Fisichella. "Michelin have done a fantastic job as well, and they have found some very good developments for the tyres. I think the overall situation is looking very positive at the moment.

"This has been a very tough championship all the way through the year, and it will go down to Brazil. Ferrari is a strong competitor, but we have clear targets for these races. I am trying to get third in the drivers' championship, Fernando wants to win, and for both those things, we have to beat the Ferraris. If we can do that, then the Constructors' Championship will be ours. We will be pushing all the way to the end of the season, just as we planned."
