The Silverstone-based team dropped Adrian Sutil despite his
career-best finish of ninth in the drivers' standings, but retained Di Resta
after the Scot finished his debut season strongly.
Di Resta earned points in seven of the final nine races to
help Force India to a best position of sixth in the constructors' championship.
Team principal Vijay Mallya says "Paul caught the eye
of everybody in the pit lane during his rookie season." Hulkenberg spent
the end of 2010 with Williams and was Force India reserve last season.
Sutil finished 15 points clear of Di Resta and is expected
to join Williams.
