Force India's British driver Di Resta finished fourth to bring home Sahara Force India's best result of the season at last weekend's Bahrain Grand Prix in Sakhir.
Di Resta, who started the race fifth, looked on course for his first podium finish in his 43-race Formula One career before ending 2.2 seconds behind third-place finisher Romain Grosjean of Lotus.
"I am happy to consistently score points for the team. But hopefully we will soon step on the podium. We have a fast car this year but we need to work on it a little bit more. But as a team we should be content with what we have achieved so far in the season," he added.
"The Bahrain race was very similar to last year's Singapore. In both the races, I obviously was in podium position. The only difference was that Bahrain was trouble-free," he said.
