Force India F1 team principal Colin Kolles has spoken ahead of this weekend's impending Australian Grand Prix of his ambitions that his team will this season be fighting in the midfield pack and move in to a position where points are being scored on a regular basis. Kolles also spoke of a 'long-term future' for the team which was absent under the previous owners.

'I have been with this team through some difficult times over the past three years, but with dedicated team owners, a realistic budget and high ambitions, I can now see a long-term future for us.

'We are here at the start of something incredibly exciting - a new market to capture, a new spirit in the team and increased resources to really deliver.'

Kolles added that the 2008 driver line-up 'was the first sign that we are not just happy to be at the back anymore - we are looking forward and laying down stones for the future.'

'I see Force India with a great optimism, and I am eagerly anticipating this year.

I really think we can join the midfield group this season and with it being so competitive, we could be in a position to be a regular points finisher.'
