Nico Rosberg says Williams are targeting fourth place in the Constructors' Championship this season.
Ferrari, McLaren and BMW have by far and away been the best teams this season while Williams, Toyota, Red Bull and Renault have been battling it out for the remaining points on offer.
Williams are currently fourth in the standings with 10 points thanks mainly to the German's podium finish in the opening race in Australia.
Rosberg, though, admits it won't be easy to hang onto that position.
"The battle is very tight out there and it won't be easy at all to hold onto the fourth position in the Constructors' Championship," he told the official Formula One website in an interview.
"However, this is our target for this year and we'll do anything we can to achieve it. With some luck, we might end up on the podium again."
The 22-year-old admits Williams need to be at the very best in Barcelona this weekend if they want to pick up a few points.
"There are three teams quite clearly quicker than us at the moment, which means that if everything goes smoothly and they have no problems, we can be seventh," he said.
"There is little room left in the points for everyone else and the battle is tight. Most of the teams will bring improvements on their cars to the first European race. We'll see on Saturday in Barcelona where everyone is."
