Force India is considering changing its name to give it a more "international flavour" and make the Formula 1 team more attractive to potential new sponsors, says boss Vijay Mallya.
The Indian businessman said the fact he is considering a name change has "absolutely" nothing to do with his current legal situation.
"The fact the country of India and me are not the best partners is something that has been going on for a few years now," said Mallya. "This is nothing new.
"I haven't in the last few years considered any name change. It's purely to do with current sponsorship, a proposal on the table and sponsorship going forward for the team."
