Force India F1 Team Principal Dr Vijay Mallya has revealed that the Silverstone-based outfit will have some small aero updates and a couple of mechanical changes for the Brazilian Grand Prix this weekend as they look to ‘tease’ everything they can out of the VJM03.
“We came away from [the last race in] Korea pretty pleased with the result, particularly after a tough couple of races,” said Mallya prior to the penultimate round in the 2010 FIA Formula One World Championship.
“Tonio [Liuzzi] did a great job over the race and to get eight more points was a brilliant effort. Adrian [Sutil] of course had a more difficult time but we managed to extend the gap over Williams by a point and regain our confidence levels. We can of course still optimise our performance but to come away with a slightly larger cushion for sixth in the championship is a satisfying step at this stage in the game.
“I hope that Interlagos will be a good track for us. It's lower downforce, which should play to the strengths of the car, and both drivers have performed well at the track in the past.
“It can also throw up unpredictable conditions, which we have shown we can shine in at events like Canada and Korea this year. Last year we qualified well and although the competition has got a whole lot tougher and closer I'm still hopeful we can put on a good show.
“We're bringing some small aero updates again and a couple of mechanical changes to tease everything we can out of the car.
“We felt that we didn't get the maximum potential from the car in qualifying in Korea, so we'll try to improve on that in Brazil to set us up for a better race. It's really the final push so we're putting all our heads together to get everything we can,” Mallya concluded.
