Force India launch the VJM11

Force India has launched its new car, the VJM11. The Silverstone outfit is the final F1 team to showcase its 2018 entry, with most teams presenting their cars last week.

Last year, Force India launched in its somewhat traditional colours, before announcing a deal with BWT. The deal meant that Force India had to change its colours to pink, something it has kept on this year. It has also opted to colour its halo pink. It has also added dashes of white around the car. 

The car will be driven once again by Sergio Perez, who joined the team in 2014. Despite 2017 being Force India's most successful season, it was the first since 2014 where they failed to claim a podium finish.

He will be joined by Esteban Ocon, who enters his second full season of F1. The Frenchman debuted for Manor in 2016 midway through the season, before being picked up by Force India for 2017. Both men will be looking to push each other after sharing fueds on-track last year.
