aku ade baca kat web F1 psl team malaysia nie....

ramai yg bantai ade la.......tapi ade gakk yg bagi support

nama team nie 'LOTUS or LOTUS F1'...,
aku tnyerr nie berdasarkan komen org....


This venture is not backed by either the Lotus Group or the Chapman family and the original Team Lotus does still exist in a different form.

Classic Team Lotus is run by Clive Chapman, Colin's son, employees a number of original Team Lotus personnel and concentrates on historic racing from Formula Junior to Formula 1.

This new team can get away with using the name Lotus since Proton are the owners. They would have a problem with "Team Lotus" which is why they are calling it "Lotus F1".

A continuation of the original team? No way! There is no link to the past unlike Ron when he bought McLaren.

Lotus returns to F1 as FIA muses over a 14-team grid

The iconic Lotus name is to return to Formula 1 for the first time in 16 years in 2010, it has been revealed – as the FIA confirmed that the Malaysian-run entry has been granted the 13th slot on the starting grid next season, with the potential to expand the field to 14 teams.

Though racing under the banner of the Lotus F1 Team, the outfit will actually be operated by 1Malaysia F1 Team Sdn Bhd – a partnership between the Malaysian Government and a consortium of Malaysian entrepreneurs. To begin with, the team will be based at the RTN facility in Norfolk – a 50,000 sq ft fully-equipped facility just ten miles from the Lotus Cars factory, first built by Toyota for its F1 programme and subsequently employed by Bentley for its triumphant Le Mans effort in 2003. Following the initial phase, Team Lotus F1's design, R&D, manufacturing and technical centre will be purpose-built at the Sepang International Circuit, home to the annual Malaysian Grand Prix.

Team principal Tony Fernandes is the founder and CEO of the Malaysian-based Tune Group, owner of the Air Asia airline. The technical director, meanwhile, will be the esteemed Mike Gascoyne, a man with more than two decades of experience at the highest level from his time spent in similar roles at McLaren, Tyrrell, Sauber, Jordan, Renault, Toyota and Force India between 1989 and 2008. Like fellow newcomers USF1, Campos and Manor, Team Lotus F1 will use customer Cosworth powerplants.

Whilst Lotus is therefore set to return to the grid in the top flight for the first time since 1994, BMW looks likely to depart – unless the governing body is successful in implementing an initiative that could see the field expanded to 28 cars, the likes of which has not been seen in F1 for a decade-and-a-half.

'The FIA also received an impressive application from the BMW Sauber Team,' read an official statement. 'However, given that BMW has announced it will withdraw its support in 2010, there are still uncertainties regarding the future ownership of the team.

'Nevertheless, the FIA considers that BMW Sauber's application is of high quality and would constitute a competitive participant in the championship. As such, it has awarded BMW Sauber the '14th place' in the championship, meaning that it will be entitled to fill any vacancy that arises on the 2010 grid.

'In addition, the FIA believes that a good case can be made for expanding the grid to 14 teams. The FIA will be consulting urgently with the existing teams regarding the introduction of an appropriate rule change to expand the grid to 28 cars in time for the first grand prix in 2010.'

Between 1958 and 1994, the original Team Lotus achieved 73 grand prix wins, 102 pole positions, six drivers' world titles and seven constructors' crowns from 489 starts, with illustrious names of the calibre of Jim Clark, Graham Hill, Sir Stirling Moss, Emerson Fittipaldi, Jochen Rindt, Mario Andretti, Ronnie Peterson, Nigel Mansell, Ayrton Senna, Nelson Piquet and Mika Hakkinen all competing for the squad during their own F1 careers.

The return of Lotus - the history of a legendary F1 name

2010 will see four new teams join the Formula One grid. Alongside ManorGrand Prix, Team US and Campos Meta, the revitalized paddock will alsosee one the sport’s most famous names return to the fold - Lotus, theresult of a partnership between the Malaysian government and aconsortium of Malaysian entrepreneurs.

For the first time in 15years, the legendary moniker will once again grace the grid as the newteam sets out to follow in the footsteps of the legendary original.With seven championships, 79 race wins and 107 pole positions, itremain one of the sport’s most successful constructors, having achievedglory with the likes of Jim Clark, Graham Hill and Ayrton Senna.

Setup almost six decades ago by Englishman Colin Chapman, with financialhelp from his fiancee Hazel, the Lotus Engineering Company started lifein 1952 building lightweight sports cars to order. Five years later,the firm had constructed its first single-seater, the Type 12, for theFormula Two championship. After the car won the International Trophy atSilverstone, Chapman decided to take on Formula One racing.

Fittedwith a more powerful 2.2-litre Coventry Climax engine, the Type 12 madeits debut at the 1958 Monaco Grand Prix with Graham Hill and CliffAllison at the wheel. After finishing the season (and scoring threeworld championship points), Lotus launched the Type 16 for 1959. Thenew model was more powerful, but hopelessly fragile, and gleaned justtwo more points than its predecessor.

In 1960, Chapman hit backwith the innovative mid-engined Lotus 18. Although Stirling Mossclinched the car’s first victory in Monaco, it was for Rob Walker’sindependent team and Lotus had to wait until Innes Ireland’s success atthe 1961 United States Grand Prix to truly celebrate. The floodgateshad opened, but it wouldn’t be until Jim Clark climbed into the cockpitthat Lotus would really make their name.

Driving the Lotus 25in 1963, Clark won seven of the season’s ten races and with it thetitle. Although the Scot fought hard to defend his crown a year later,he missed out, but returned stronger in ’65, dominating again with sixrace wins to take the championship. He also won the Indy 500. However,caught unawares by F1 racing’s upgrade to three-litre engines in 1966,Lotus struggled.

A change to the Keith Duckworth-designed Ford Cosworth engine in ’67 paid off and Clark won four races. Everything was set for the team to return to their title-winning ways in 1968, but in April, Clark was killed during a Formula Two race in Germany. Although team mate Hill would go on to championship glory in the Lotus 49, Chapman and his team were left devastated by their loss.

Drafting in Jochen Rindt to replace the much-missed Clark in 1970, Chapman made a wise move. Widely regarded as one of the quickest drivers in Formula One racing, Rindt did Chapman proud, dominating the season in the pioneering Lotus 72. He would go on to win a third world championship for the team, but the drivers’ title was bestowed on the Austrian posthumously, after he was killed during practice at Monza. It seemed as though Lotus successes would always be accompanied by crushing blows.

Brazilian Emerson Fittpaldi was hired to take Rindt’s place and clinched the drivers’ crown two seasons later in 1972. At 25, Fittipaldi became the youngest-ever world champion. The car too had adopted a new look - with the black and gold livery, inspired by its tobacco sponsor, John Player. Although the team took the constructors’ championship in 1973, and became the first F1 team to secure 50 victories, the Lotus 72 was starting to struggle and over the next few seasons wins became a rarity.

A revival in fortunes began with the introduction of the Lotus 78 for the 1977 season. Known as the ‘wing car’, the 78 was the first F1 machine to exploit the performance-enhancing benefits of ground-effect aerodynamics. But while it was fast - it won five Grands Prix - engine reliability often let the car down.

Even so, the team knew they were on to something, and continued to refine the concept into the 79, which to this day remains one of the most pioneering F1 cars ever built. Although it was only ready in time for the sixth round of the ’78 season, its potential was immediately obvious with American driver Mario Andretti taking pole and victory in Belgium. From there, Andretti and the 79 didn’t look back, with team and driver taking both titles. It was bittersweet, however, with Andretti’s team mate Ronnie Peterson getting embroiled in a fatal start-line incident at Monza.

Of course, the following season saw a whole host of 79 lookalikes on the grid. Unfortunately, the imitators had improved on the original, and Williams stole Lotus’ crown to take their first title. Bravely pushing on with their development programme, Lotus introduced the Lotus 80 and 88. However, the 80 model proved highly undriveable, with Andretti racking up just one race finish, whilst the all carbon-fibre 88 was banned.
