Following the long running names dispute, just been reading that Team Lotus will be become Caterham from next year.

Which Team Lotus ?

Which Team Lotus ? 

Indeed!

Not Renault Lotus.

A bit of a shame,as I couldnt see why Renault thought they should be able to use the Lotus name. The only connection afaik was the fact that Lotus used Renault engines in the Senna era. Cynical marketing imo.
Caterham name being used is a bit strange tbh. Some sort of licensing agreement,although Caterham is hardly a global brand.
