Same old story from Force India. Merely a small evolution of the VJM02. Nothing special.


you have to think that the VJM02 had some good days

The complete lack of body shaping, seemingly anywhere is very worrying. Even Virgin had that. Looks to have a more underwhelming front end than even renault. same old I fear. roll on spa and monza?

I reckon that spy video & photo were all part of a Williams marketing-thing. Pretty clever too.

Rubens posted the video, he'd never have done that if he wasn't told to by the williams crew.. claire williams did too.

But, Virgin had their silverstone shakedown today.

Best looking car EVAR


I don't know if it's a combination of the tyres and the colours but for some reason it made me think of this:

God that Force India is dull. It would be meh overall, but the livery is :vomit:

The front wing looks pretty decent, a lot like Saubers but Force India said it was the diffuser that was key to their car. Apparently they've spent some serious man hours in their new CFD computer perfecting it. Still... the body does look a bit basic...

Force India body shell is like a bog standard shell you could buy for any F1 team. hmmm

It definitely looks on the under-developedside. But a) the body is probably a lot easier to develop than a diffuser and b) they lost gascoyne - so it was bound to show somewhere.

I guess if you think about it logically, they had a very good low downforce package last year, if they can throw a shed load of downforce via the disfuser, it may bring them up to scratch, the shark fin looks interesting.

Looks like a hideously short wheelbase to me? Liking the livery - spesh with the yellow rims.

Doesn't exactly look like a Gascoyne car though...

Legend. Been waiting to see a spy shot of that all day :thumbup:

I like the livery - and those trims are badass (I'm a sucker for brightly painted wheels). The front wing is a bit too far forward for my liking though - it's like floating ahead of the nose, awkward looking. Other than that it's fairly bland. Not especially developed, but not too shabby.
