(Sahara Force India Formula One Team)
Sahara Force India Deputy Team Principal Bob Fernley has
criticised the Manor F1 Team for running just one car at the Malaysian Grand
Prix at the weekend.
The Banbury based outfit fully intended to run both Will
Stevens and Roberto Merhi in yesterday’s Grand Prix however they were unable to
run Stevens as they were unable to solve a fuel pressure problem that developed
on the car which meant that the Englishman was not able to run in Qualifying on
Saturday.
Fernley believed that despite the team travelling to the
opening Grand Prix of the season in Australia that they never intended to race.
The Sahara Force India Formula One Team blocked Manor’s attempts to run their
2014 car.
The outfit are currently competing with an interim car which
is fully compliant with the 2015 FIA regulations. The Force India deputy
believes that the FIA and the commercial rights holder will deal with the team
accordingly.
Fernley went on to say that he feels that the team need to
run both cars in China as he feels that by running just the one car it damages
the image of the team.
