Lotus hinting at Renault buy-out at Spa?

[superdowg316]

I've just noticed on the side of the Lotus cars at Spa that they have 'Enstone Strong' with reefs of their championship years. However, with all the talk of Renault buying back Lotus, I found it interesting to note that the reefs didn't contain their 1994 championship, which was with Michael Schumacher and their first. Only 1995, 2005 and 2006 were on the side. Coincidentally, 1994's car was powered by Ford while the other three were powered by...Renault engines.

Is that a cheeky/sneaky hint that the Renault deal is done?

Or it could be because Williams won 1994.

Ah, wreaths...

Benetton was effectively a 1 car team in 94, only Schumacher could get results from it.

Because they are only listing the constructors championships. They also had this on their livery for years.

I think in the past couple of seasons they were 3 stars just in front of the cockpit instead of 3 wreaths.
