Force India are bringing a load of new aero updates to Bahrain. This includes a new undertray and one of the controversial double decker diffusers which have just been officially made legal. Team boss Vijay Mallya had this to say:“We are planning to introduce a significant aerodynamic upgrade for the Bahrain Grand Prix, including a new floor and an interim diffuser. Amongst other items, we also plan to use new auxiliary wings on the front wing and reprofiled sidepods to incorporate the amended rear end. We have been planning this upgrade since the debut of the VJM02 as part of our scheduled aerodynamic cycle and it will represent a good step forward for the team. Although we nevertheless expect other teams to have moved forward as well, we hope this will keep us racing with the rest of the field.”
They seem pretty chuffed with themselves and sure it will make a difference. However they were like this at Spa in 2007 and nothing really came of it. So I'm not holding my breath for it to make a difference. If it does make any difference that will no doubt be eaten up by the improvements of most of the other teams who are introducing all new aero bits and bobs for the Spanish Gran Prix.
