Romain Grosjean has praised the work of his Lotus Renault team following his second-placed finish at the United States Grand Prix.
The Frenchman, starting from third on the grid, got ahead of Mark Webber's Red Bull and managed to hole the Aussie off in what proved to be an exciting duel in Austin.
"It was a good start and I got past Mark and almost caught Seb," Grosjean said in his post-race interview. "The car worked well today, I'm very proud to represent Lotus.
"Everyone did a 100% job and I'm glad to be on the podium here in the United States.
"I like this country and I always look forward to this beautiful track. Maybe next year I will go one better."
It is the sixth time Grosjean has finished on the podium.
