4th most successful F1 team are back for 2010

"LOTUS"

New team with the money coming from Malaysia, and part funded by the Malaysian Government. Unfortunately they will be moving the team to Malaysia once it is up and running so the jobs generated in the UK won't be here for that long.

Im not going to support Lotus then. Simply because of the fact it isnt linked to our country. Ahaha. Same with Ferrari.

Just wondering, why are they moving to malaysia. (Cheaper staff?). And why are the malysian government paying. I thought Lotus were English

Lotus have had connections with Malaysia for quite some time now. Good to see their name back in F1 though.

Why would they move the team to Malaysia when all the engineering knowledge is over here? Unless they take all the people with them.......

Good to have Lotus back, one of the great names in racing :thumbup:
