Team Lotus still bullish over name

Team Lotus chiefs Tony Fernandes and Mike Gascoyne have responded defiantly to the announcement of Group Lotus's entry into Formula 1 with Renault. The two organisations are currently battling over the use of the Lotus brand in F1, with Group Lotus and its owner Proton insisting it has sole rights over the name, while Fernandes' squad is adamant that the car company and F1 team were separate in the original Lotus days so its purchase of Team Lotus rights from David Hunt is valid. In messages on their Twitter pages this morning, both Fernandes and Gascoyne signalled that news that Group Lotus had become a partner of Renault and Genii Capital would not deter them from fighting to use Team Lotus next year.

Penske expects to keep team intact

Penske is now confident that it has put together a sponsorship package that will allow it to keep Will Power, Helio Castroneves and Ryan Briscoe on board for the full 2011 IndyCar season.

While the creation of Lotus Renault GP will put the team directly in competition with Team Lotus next year - leaving F1 with the bizarre scenario of having two black-and-gold Lotus Renault teams in 2011 - Proton says it is fully behind the plans for Lotus to become a title sponsor and shareholder in Renault
