Force India VJM05

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

No. The placeholders are there, but the source is slow.

They're still lacking the holes on the floor ahead of the wheels, and the modern efficient brake ducts that don't stick out in the open.

Btw, thank you for all of the pics and videos Diesel.

Follow the link as the recent posts about it has been split off to make it easier to follow and to maintain this thread about just the development of the car.

Interesting to see how...simple their front wings are compared to others like the top runners and teams like Williams and Sauber. I'd be curious to hear what DiResta and Hulkenberg feel about front downforce levels for the car.

you can put more front downforce only if you have good rear downforce, in force india case, simplifer front wing means maybe better top speed, but real reason is lacking rear downforce.

Ah. I see. I did read on another thread or another article about how the balance has been eschewed to the front due to the 2009 regulations. Thanks for the insight.
