I can't help thinking that a certain Mr. Chapman might have found the Lotus team that is getting other people to pay for its racing to be more in the spirit of his old team than the Lotus team that is being paid by his former company to call itself Lotus - except when being spoken about by anyone who knows about these things.

I did read somewhere that GE said it was to continue their links first formed via the link with AirAsia, so what is the chance that it wont be long before Air Asia announces an engine buy from GE. However I guess thats what its all about.

Although they deny the two things are linked;
