Sergio Perez admits that Force India will not be affected by the ongoing legal issues surrounding their team principal Vijay Mallya, as the Indian was arrested in London last week.

After being taken by police, he was bailed and despite the Indian government's desire to extract the businessman from the UK, Perez says that the team is still in high spirits.

"The team is in a good situation. Vijay is probably glad about the proceedings -- now there is some certainty and he believes that everything will go in his favour," the Mexican added. "Vijay is optimistic and we look forward to having him back."

Mallya can only attend one Grand Prix a year, which is always the team's home race at Silverstone. The 61-year-old is not allowed to leave the UK.
