The Lotus team is slowly taking shape for its return to Formula 1 in 2010. Supported by the Malaysian government, the team was authorized to start the 2010 championship following the withdrawal of BMW. The manufacturer has also just recruited its director of the sports department in the person of Claudio Berro.

The latter has already held important positions at Ferrari, Maserati and Fiat. “ Lotus has an unrivaled heritage in motorsport and not just in Formula 1. There are not many manufacturers who can boast of having won championships in so many disciplines ", did he declare. " I look forward to reintroducing Lotus to the highest level of motorsport, not just to compete and win, but also to demonstrate the shared technology between Lotus racing cars and the sports cars in the range. »
