Lotus Rivalry

2011 Lotus Renault GP R31

After a very long hiatus, Lotus has finally returned to Formula One. But, what's strange about their comeback is that there are two teams that have acquired the Lotus brand. The one you're looking at now is the one which has teamed up with Renault to produce their new team car, the GP R31. The body and engine were designed and built by Renault while Lotus covered livery and advertising. 

2011 Lotus Challenger T128

This one is Lotus's official F1 car, the Challenger T128. Although it uses a Renault engine, the design, body, and livery were done by Lotus themselves. These two teams will be competing in this season of F1. With two teams upholding the Lotus brand on their cars, who knows what will happen. All I can say is that there's going to be some serious rivalry between these two.
