Mallya: No-one should stand in Fisichella's way

Force India team boss Vijay Mallya has stated that no-one should prevent Giancarlo Fisichella from joining Ferrari after the Italian sensationally switched teams this week.

Mr Mallya, who gave the move the green light with immediate effect, confirmed that Fisichella will be driving for the Ferrari team for the remainder of the season.

He remarked: "For any Italian driver, a Ferrari race seat is a long-held dream and for Giancarlo it was no exception. No one should stand in the way of this."

According to the Force India executive, it would be "incorrect to jeopardise" the driver's long-term transfer and admitted that no money changed hands regarding the arrangement.

Fisichella is expected to make his debut in his homeland at the Italian Grand Prix in Monza on September 13th.
