VJM08 could miss first Barcelona session

Already absent this week in Jerez, the Force India team may not field its new VJM08 (whose livery was unveiled in Mexico City) during the second session of winter testing which will be organized from February 19 to 22 on the Catalan circuit of Barcelona.

“Even if everyone is working to be able to field the VJM08 at the next test session in Barcelona, ​​it is more likely that the new car will appear at the last Barcelona session (February 26 – March 1, Editor’s note), explains the team, comments reproduced on the official website of the discipline. That would mean running the 2014 car at the first Barcelona test. »

German Nico Hulkenberg and the Mexican Sergio Pérez are the two starting drivers designated for this 2015 season.
