May 16 (GMM) Force India's legal pursuit of formula one competitors using so-called 'customer cars' may now be over.
Then under the Spyker banner, the Silverstone based team commenced arbitration against Super Aguri and Force India more than a year ago, arguing that their use of cars not designed by themselves is against the rules.
With Super Aguri now folded, however, the German magazine Sport Bild reports that the remaining parties - Force India and the partially Red Bull-owned Toro Rosso - have now sat down in an attempt to end the row once and for all.
Reportedly, Force India chiefs Vijay Mallya and Colin Kolles met in Salzburg at the Red Bull-owned restaurant 'Carpe Diem' with Dietrich Mateschitz's lawyer.
It is believed a settlement totalling 8 million euros was agreed by Red Bull.
Kolles confirmed to Sport Bild: "I think we will find a way forward now."
