Lotus hospitality up in flames

The Lotus F1 Team saw its hospitality unit go into flames at the Sepang paddock last night. A suspected electrical fault in a fridge caused a fire that destroyed the team's hospitality unit and kitchen facilities.

Lotus issued a statement on Saturday morning that read: "The team asks for forgiveness for certain personnel who have entered the fire-damaged facility as they will be rather smoke-fragranced today. Many team members may also look rather hungry for a short time."
