#3 Force India resurgence
After a great 2017 season, finishing 4th behind Red Bull and over a 100 points ahead of 5th place Williams, Force India has had a rocky start to the 2018 season.
With Esteban Ocon picking up a solitary point at the Bahrain Grand Prix, Force India stand second from last, only ahead of Williams who haven't had a car in the points yet.
Force India managed to make the best of a smaller budget and put a solid chassis on the Mercedes engine, scoring double point-finishes in all but 4 of the races in 2017. This year, Force India will need to compete against promising challenges from McLaren, Toro Rosso, Haas and Renault, as well as with the top 3 teams in Ferrari, Red Bull and Mercedes.
With the improvements that seem to be coming quickly for the 'Pink Panthers', and hopefully a lack of incidents in Shanghai, we hope that Force India will bounce back and assert their dominance in the midfield in China once more.
Last year, Force India garnered a P9 and P10 finish in China, so this track was not the worst for them. Let's see if the 'Pink Powerhouse' can salvage the start of this season.
