Lotus Renault confirm Petrov and show their new F1 livery
December 22, 2010
Now that Group Lotus and Genii Capital have gazumped 1 Malaysia Racing with their black/gold livery, they've now clothed Renault F1's 2010 car in the new design to show us just what to expect in 2011.
Complemented by its new-for-2011 Pirelli slick tyres, it will make a stunning contribution to the F1 grid and should be a front-runner now that drivers Robert Kubica and Vitaly Petrov have had their race seats confirmed. The Russian has signed a new two-year deal with the recently rebranded squad, which was announced this morning.

We were already aware that Group Lotus were in discussions with Genii Capital - majority shareholders in the Renault F1 team - about bringing a tie-up for 2011. The announcement was due at the final grand prix in Abu Dhabi, but there's been much lobbying and negotiation in the background prior to this morning's announcement.
