Liuzzi, Klien, to test for Force India
Team to attend Barcelona

Nov.10 (GMM) The newly-renamed Force India team on Saturday announced that Vitantonio Liuzzi and Christian Klien will test the 2007 car next week.

Earlier speculation suggested Ralf Schumacher and even Jarno Trulli could also be in contention for a test, but a statement issued by the Silverstone based team said only Roldan Rodriguez, Giedo van der Garde and Adrian Sutil would join Liuzzi and Klien at the Circuit de Catalunya.

Liuzzi raced for Toro Rosso this year, while former Red Bull racer Klien was Honda's official 2007 reserve driver.

Force India, jointly owned by Vijay Mallya and Michiel Mol, was recently renamed following the purchase of the Spyker team and will debut in 2008.

The team, featuring a new logo in the colours of the Indian flag, will in Barcelona field Spyker's 2007 cars "with a distinctive new interim burgundy red and white livery", the statement also revealed.
