Force India unveil car in Jerez

Fisichella gave the new VJM02 its first run-out in Jerez

Force India launched their 2009 car with its track debut at testing in Jerez, Spain, on Sunday.

Giancarlo Fisichella took the VJM02, which includes a Mercedes-Benz V8 engine and McLaren gearbox, through its paces at the Circuit de Jerez.

And team principal Vijay Mallya said they were looking to score their first world championship points in 2009.

He said: "I would like to see a strong start, rising to points mid-season and a definite improvement in qualifying."

Force India failed to register a point in their debut season last year, and Mallya added: "Regular points finishes should be the aim."

This year will see the return of slick tyres and the introduction of Kinetic Energy Recovery Systems (Kers), giving the start of the season an air of unpredictability.

"This year is maybe the biggest change for many years, with Kers, slick tires, downforce and new aero rules, so it's very exciting," said Fisichella.

"It would be good to see all the teams mixed up and to be able to fight for points. If the car is good, why not even for the podium?"

German Adrian Sutil will occupy the second driver's seat.
