let see,

a new team, based in norfolk from a company founded by ex lotus engineers, that will be managed by a former team lotus driver.

why not.

im sure, especially if it starts to go well, that lotus will want to be involved at some level- however small. i suspect they already are.

its not as if there arent plenty of other teams at different levels baring mnf names but independant.

i for one, no matter how remote the lineage was, would rather see the lotus name once again on a f1 car tearing around a track, than left to the dusty history books that nobody even reads now.

i think this could be a good thing for lotus.
