  • Quite unexpected, and I must admit a yellow car would be more handsome. But its definitely not ugly, very cool with yellow and black like this. But will miss the Lotus colours. They have a very stable driver lineup, but I doubt we'll see much of them this year. Neither engine nor car seem to be making much progress according to Ilmor and Abiteboul.

    Good to see Magnussen is getting another chance, he deserves it.
