'Lotus bags Trulli & Kovi'?

Should read, 'Lotus rescues Trulli & Kovi's careers' more like.

Shouldn't they be re-branding the team "Mediocre F1"?

Come on Heikki at least be ready for your school photo

I think that's a pretty good line up for them.

Who dressed those guys this morning. Kovalainen looks like he's stopped off on his way to a funeral and Trulli looks like his mum dressed him.

And +1 for MiniMan. Either team uniform + cap or wear a suit. Don't mix them, you just look stupid.

yup, makes sense for all involved. i think rookie drivers in a new team would have been a mistake. never gonna set the world on fire, but they were never going ot in their first year anyway.

Lots of Tremendous Unparralelled Success.

Let's hope for the latter

My second team. Always like to support an underdog.

Trulli I understand, an experienced journeyman driver whose quick on a good day if never outstanding but will help them develop the car.

Kovalinen I guess is trading on also having experience of current F1 cars and circuits -in particular one of the best cars- which I guess is a high commodity with the new teams but can't see he has much else to offer, really needs to prove himself against trulli or I can see a mid-season replacement.

My thoughts exactly - thats gotta be a strong line up for a new team up (even if the car isnt up to much 'out of the box').

Good luck to them, and glad Heiki landed himself in a seat of sorts!
