On new cars and new teams

F1 launch season is practically at an end, with all but two of the teams entered for the 2010 world championship having revealed their challengers.  If you’ve been meaning to seek out pictures of the Ferrari F10, McLaren MP4-25, Williams FW32, Renault R30, Scuderia Toro Rosso STR5, Sauber C29, Red Bull RB6, Mercedes MGP W01, [...]

Lotus outlines 2010 position

Lost somewhat amid the hoo-ha surrounding another famous returning team name, Lotus announced their 2010 driver line-up today, and with a pair of Grand Prix winners at the controls, it’s an awfully strong one for a start-up outfit.
