Force India has confirmed that it will launch its car for the 2017 Formula 1 season at Silverstone on February 22.
Force India enjoyed its best-ever season in F1 last year, finishing fourth in the constructors' championship as Sergio Perez and Nico Hulkenberg both ended the year in the top 10 of the drivers' standings.
Perez picked up two podiums through the campaign, and is set to lead the team once again through 2017 alongside new teammate Esteban Ocon following Hulkenberg's move to Renault.
With Mercedes and Ferrari already confirming launch dates for their 2017 cars, Force India became the latest team to firm up its plans with an announcement on Thursday morning.
"Give in to excitement – we will launch our 2017 season in Silverstone on the 22nd of February!" the team wrote on its website.
"We have a lot in store for that day, so watch this space (and our social media accounts, too) for more information on how to fully enjoy the start of this new season.
"With a new driver line-up, new regulations and a renewed hunger to build on our most successful season ever, it's time to Feel the Force again!"
