You'll have to get used to it. Force India will for the first time abandon the colors of the Indian flag to sport a pink livery on the VJM10s. Vijay Mallya's team made these modifications following a partnership signed with BWT, an Austrian company specializing in water treatment. The livery will be in effect from the Australian Grand Prix on March 26 in Melbourne.

“The arrival of BWT in F1 is big news and represents our most important partnership since we started a decade ago, explained Vijay Mallya. It's a sign of where we've gone with this team in achieving strong results and commercial success over the winter. »

After unveiling the new livery of the VJM10, Force India clarified that the helmets ofEsteban Ocon and Sergio Pérez would be in agreement with the new color of the car. Vijay Mallya's team has not specified whether the protection decorations will differentiate the Mexican from the French.
