Lotus-Renault

No longer a 'new' team, Lotus has set its sights on beating some of the more established opposition this year. On paper it has a pretty good package in place - with Renault engines and Red Bull Racing transmission. Yet this is a still a very young team, and there is plenty of work to do before it can find both the reliability and the speed that it will need in place to achieve its ambitions. Pre-season testing was not ideal, but it showed throughout 2010 that good team spirit and devotion can still work wonders in F1.
