Lotus is back in IndyCar! Will be part of the 2010 season
Right after qualifying 20th and 21st during the qualifying session of the Bahrain Grand Prix in Sakhir, Lotus has officially announced its return to IndyCar. The company announced a partnership with Cosworth and a current IndyCar team called KV Racing Technology.
The new team will take part in this year’s series which kicks start in Sao Paolo, Brazil on March 14th. The Lotus-Cosworth IndyCar will be piloted by former Formula 1 driver Takumo Sato. Lotus also said that the race car will be treated to the company’s classic green and yellow colour scheme.
KV Racing Technology was established in 2003 and has competed in two IndyCar championships. The team has thus far won two races, first by Cristiano da Matta and second by Will Power. Pictured above is a rendering of the Lotus-Cosworth IndyCar machine.

I think this car looks lovely. I sincerely hope that Lotus are successful in their venture. This will certainly raise their profile in the States.
