Force India, an ambitious Anglo-Indian outfit, emerged from the ashes of Spyker F1 for the 2008 season. Though never achieving a victory, the team consistently punched above its weight, becoming renowned for its efficiency and ability to score points with a comparatively modest budget. Their distinctive pink livery, introduced in 2017, became a fan favorite and a symbol of their plucky underdog spirit. Financial difficulties ultimately led to the team's administration during the 2018 season, before being reborn as Racing Point.
