by lfcnicklfc Tue 12 Oct 2010 - 17:07

i'm suprised no one else has posted about that story before its a really big story so we have Lotus in F1, Indy Car, GP2 and GP3 with Carlin, F Reanault 3.5, Formula 3, LMP2, GT2 and GT4. Good stuff Very Happy

by **Radiation Louis** Tue 12 Oct 2010 - 18:26

well not anymore in f1, read something somewhere they werent allowed to use the name anymore after this year

by lfcnicklfc Tue 12 Oct 2010 - 20:34

they're still Lotus they wanted to change to Team Lotus liked the Lotus' of yesteryear and thats been legally challenged by 1 Malaysia who are running the team so they're still Lotus Smile

i read the lotus brand didnt even want the name on the car! i hope they did come to an agreement but as far as i know it came from lotus its self. not to mention read the story i posted it mentions something about everything but F1!

by nickyf1 Tue 12 Oct 2010 - 22:13

Its confusing.... Group Lotus (the actual Lotus) have nothing to do with F1. Lotus Racing is just a name, it has no connection with Lotus.

by **Radiation Louis** Tue 12 Oct 2010 - 22:21

i understand that nicky but if a team is going to be called lotus, use its colours and more or less its logo, you would think it would get some sort of mention as being lotus.

by **CQR Rogue** Wed 13 Oct 2010 - 8:57

Yea Louis but its like all old team names in f1 didnt brabham devlop in bar through various incarnations etc?

It's been a while for Imola but really pleased to see it back on the proper international scene.

Well Racelegend mentioned a while ago that at the workshop at Extrac they were working on the front suspension for Toyota P1 car for 2012 so it looks like a test year with the engine for 2011 and a factory team for 2012
