Formula 1 team Force India has unveiled their new car, called VJM09, for the 2016 season of the Formula One Championship in the presence of their drivers, Nico Hulkenberg and Sergio Perez.

The VJM09 has evolved by building on the strengths of the 2015 B-spec chassis that helped the team secure fifth place in the constructors’ championship last year.

The new car retains the distinctive black and silver livery introduced last year.

The colours reflect our partners and heritage. Although I’m biased, I think our car is one of the best looking on the grid and that’s why I wanted to keep a consistent look for 2016. As they say, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Force India’s team will be entering the next season with their association with Kingfisher and Royal Challenge.
