Davidson certain he will score soon

While teammate Takuma Sato has finished in the points twice so far this season, Davidson has yet to get off the mark.

However, the Briton believes only bad luck has prevented him from finishing in the top eight and is therefore not too worried about the situation.

In Canada, for example, he was running in third place when he had the misfortune to hit a groundhog.

"I am feeling good about my performances at the races so far, " said Davidson. "I am at the level where I wanted to be and achieved the results that I wanted to have.

"Without a little bit of bad luck here and there I would have had points in the bag, so I have taken even more pressure off myself in that respect. I am looking forward to the rest of the season and getting even more out of myself in the races to come."

Davidson is sure, however, that his maiden points are not too far away.

"I can feel it coming," he said. "I was 11th again in Indy and have always been knocking on the door of the points scoring positions. I am waiting for another weekend like I had in Bahrain or Indy where it all came together, but with a little bit more luck on my side.

"And you do need the helping hand of luck from the other teams to allow you the opportunity to score some points, because when you are not one of the top four teams it is very difficult to do so without them faltering.

"But we are always there, we are nearly always finishing. We have a low attrition rate in our team and I think that the time will come for me soon."
