no matter what little that is the budget or the financial difficulties that you have Vijay Mallya -the owner of Force India-the team manages to come out alive year after year and call the attention of the paddock. This year seemed even more complicated and not in vain, the team presented a first single-seater of commitment, in that there was little evolution with respect to the car 2014.
Deficit in classification with respect to the pole, expressed in %.
The start was hard, but when the new car arrived at Silverstone, the performance grew exponentially and the points began to come much more quickly. The comparison between the first and the second half of the season is overwhelming, getting Perez and Hülkenberg in the last nine races almost 100 points more that in the first ten.

One of the secrets of the Force India is able to maintain one of the pairs of drivers with more talent from the grill despite being a modest team and with economic difficulties. And the theory said that Nico Hülkenberg had to be the manager of the team, but the season that Sergio Perez has done he has returned to the foreground, by turning off the light of his companion, who is without exploit too much time.
On behalf of Nico is to say that, while his partner has been the second most kilometers in the race of the season, he has barely completed enough to be 15th in the ranking. The problem is that, of the six drop-outs of the computer, five were theirs, and only one per mechanical breakdown. Everything indicates that Hülkenberg will not have the opportunity to defend the title at Le Mans in 2016, so you better raise the level of truth if you want to keep the prestige that is slowly losing.
The point-technical
The car gave a radical change in Silverstone, when it was introduced version B. Since then, the team has not stopped to introduce changes and small updates that have allowed him to finish the season in a big way, scoring in the last nine racing and getting a podium in Russia.
