Boullier has the described the MP4-29 as a 'laboratory' for next season's car. The team are currently in 6th place in the Constructors championship on 97 point's just one point behind the Sahara Force India team.
Last season the Woking based outfit failed to secure a podium however so far in 2014 they have two podium's which came at the very first race in Melbourne as Kevin Magnussen finished the race in 2nd placee while Jenson Button finished 3rd.
With the regulations set to stay the same next season Boullier has confirmed that despite planning the chassis around a different power unit the 'pick up points will remain the same' for the MP4-30.
