Force India VJM11

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.

It's interesting how Force India was best of the rest in Spa, by a margin similar to 2017. It is also mentioned that the car came with updates in Spa but it was hard to spot them.
Halo not as bad as we thought

On the topic of Force India updates, AMuS mentions them in this article: https://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/for ... geln-2019/ - they will get new updates in Singapore, including 'Ferrari' mirrors. And Andy Green mentions "The mirrors generate downforce. They direct the airflow in certain directions, which helps the rear flow".

No, that is just a sponsor decal from the Havaianas flip-flop company.
