Team Lotus Buys Caterham

[wasp]

Obviously the Lotus brand has been having trouble in deciding how many F1 cars to have their name on the side of this year

Whilst this has been speculated for a while, I wonder how much technology transfer will happen to Caterham and how it
will effect their design evolution?

Catchy huh

Sonagol don't sound like the sort of Company that would benefit from F1 coverage plus they have one
of the worst websites I've ever seen.
