They are not really Lotus though, yes they have got the name and the paintjob but it is only for marketing reasons. Personally I hope both teams change their names because Lotus in F1 died a long time ago and teams should not be allowed to re-use great names in F1 just for marketing.
The whole Lotus-Renault naming deal at the start of the year really annoyed me. I want Renault to go back to just being Renault. And Lotus can become Caterham. I wonder if they'll be changing liveries or will keep the green and gold?

so this close another Lotus chapter =/. I feel kinda bad now. What will happen to the Lotus Name? will Renault continue with Lotus partnership? Still more to come
So Red Bull are now defacto the Renault works team and Renault will nolonger be renault and possibly be powered by Cosworth!!.... *Sobs in corner*
