Sep.9 (GMM) Force India supremo Vijay Mallya has left the door open to possibly switching engine partners for the 2009 season.
We reported earlier this year that the Silverstone based team, currently powered by customer Ferrari engines, was considering perhaps moving to Honda, because the Japanese marque is willing to bundle a KERS system.
Mallya confirmed to reporters at Spa-Francorchamps that he is searching for a bundled drivetrain and KERS package for 2009.
"There's no way we can develop KERS. It would be stupid even to attempt it," the Indian billionaire said.
"I have asked Ferrari because they are my partner. Hopefully they will give it to me at a sensible price. If they don't, then I have a problem and may have to look elsewhere.
"But there's no dearth of potential suppliers."
