For me the prime factors are performance and the ability to give feedback to the engineers.\"<br/><font color=\"#000077\">“之前,车队一直在寻找资金,所以金钱成为车手阵容的最基本的刺激因素。现在情况变了。对我而言,最基本的(选择车手的)因素是表现力和给工程师反馈信息的能力。”</font></font></p><p><font size=\"3\">Mallya also said he wants the team to be fighting for a place on the podium by the time Formula One arrives in India in 2010.<br/><font color=\"#000077\">Mallya还说他希望在2010年F1大奖赛降临印度的时候,车队可以为一个领奖台位置而奋战。</font></font></p><p><font size=\"3\">\"Formula One is an extremely competitive game.

We have our own two wind tunnels, which both are running 24/7 - so I have given the engineering team everything for success.<br/><font color=\"#000077\">“不过当务之急是拉拢空中快车以发展我们的CMT,因为他们有巨大的资源可以帮助我们提高。我们有两个风洞,每一个都在24小时连轴转——所以我已经给了工程团队所有成功所需要的东西。” </font></font></p><p><font size=\"3\">\"The time frame? I have given one very clear objective - at the 2010 Indian Grand Prix Force India has to be on the podium.\"<br/><font color=\"#000077\">“时间表?我已经给出了很明确的目标——在2010年F1印度大奖赛上印度力量车队要站上领奖台。”</font></font></p>
