| Fisichella expects no points from early races |
Fisichella, Force India
Giancarlo Fisichella is expecting a difficult start to Force India's 2009 championship this weekend.
While the Silverstone-based team has been bullish about its expectations for its new collaboration with McLaren Mercedes, the winter test programme for the 2009 car was short.
A new bodywork package and KERS for the VJM02 is not scheduled to arrive until after the initial overseas races, leading veteran Fisichella to predict a ‘very hard’ title opener in Melbourne.
"We have tested very little, so my goal is to make a good start, stay clear of incidents and reach the finish," the Roman told the Italian newspaper La Stampa.
He does not expect Force India to be able to make much development headway during the Friday practice prior to the races.
"On the Fridays we will be working very hard to be ready for the races and to have a good setup.”
"My feeling is that while later in the season we will be in a position to be in the points, in Australia we will have to be most concentrated on reliability," Fisichella added | | Placed by Joukje Straatsma on Wednesday, 25 March, 01:18 PM |
