It's nice to have Lotus back in F1, however I'll wait to start watching F1 again until the Canadian Grand Prix is officially back on the schedule.

I am glad the Malaysians (Proton) letting Lotus do what it does best.

LOL.  Nothing wrong with marrying the best chassis dynamics with the most reliable engine technology IMHO.

400bhp in that chassis should be awesome!

Be rude about Lotus as much as you want. I want to see Lotus in F1

car 1 in Red and gold and Black and gold on alternate races ( no cigarette ads sadly)
car 2 always in BRG with a yellow nose.

Button in one of them and Hamilton in the other.

The money?  Bring the  ( British) troops back from Afghanistan and spend that money.
