Force India launch their 2016 car, the VJM09

New car sports 'nostril' nose design introduced in 2015

Force India have launched their 2016 car, the VJM09, as they look to build on a solid end to last season.

Unlike 2015, the team have brought their new car to the first winter test and drivers Nico Hulkenberg and Sergio Perez were on hand to take the covers off the new car.

The VJM09 carries over design traits from the VJM08-B, which was introduced midway through last season and coincided up an upturn in the team's performances.
