In case you were planning on cheering for Lotus at the 24 Hours of LeMans next weekend, you're out of luck.~ The cars have been seized by authorities. ~

Ah yes.....my link was 20 hours old. What was I thinking? :friendly_wink:

Anyway, sounds like the same old financial shenanigans that Lotus always seems to be involved with. (And isn't there actually TWO Lotus racing teams?.....I forget the details on that)

Seems like the policy with regard to bills and bank accounts is to add lightness.

I got to see the LMP2 last week here in Jerusalem along with a few Ferrari F60's the Marussia F1 and a bunch of other racing Ferraris.
While we were there the LMP2 crew pulled the whole thing apart to install the engine. Of course we stayed for the show.
Here is my son with the LMP2

I see the French hatred of Lotus continues well after Colin Chapman's death.
