Apr.24 (GMM) Force India's brand new paddock presence rivals the grandeur of its Barcelona neighbour; McLaren's famous 'Brand Centre'.

Under the new ownership of Vijay Mallya, the Silverstone based team's new 'motor home' - really a giant temporary building - is making its debut in Spain this weekend, and most observers agree that it is a match for the glass splendour of Ron Dennis' pride and joy.

Due to McLaren's championship exclusion last year, and Force India predecessor Spyker's 2007 underperformance, the two motor homes are now neighbours in the paddocks at European races.

Force India's graduation to the motor home big league, meanwhile, leaves struggling Force India with easily the least impressive paddock facilities.

But if the presence of a functioning coffee machine means anything, the tiny Honda-powered team looks likely to be in action in Spain this weekend.
