Lucas di Grassi has insisted he is happy at Virgin despite ongoing technical problems which has blighted to team's performances so far this season.

"Without experience in Formula One you have nothing," he said. "I am pleased with the progress of my career, because I have followed the right path. [Being at Virgin] means I can also make some mistakes, because we are all in a learning phase."

He admitted he was disappointed not to have secured a seat at Renault after being slotted in as a reserve at the end of last season.

"In Formula One it's not always just about talent," he said. "There are also politics and some decisions you can do nothing about."
