Team Lotus T128 Renault

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

Just an idea, but could it be a cooling vent for the planned future KERS installation, and the clear pipe is a pitot tube to measure the airspeed inside the vent? I know that most other KERS installations have been placed further forward, but with the standard weight distribution, perhaps they have needed to move things around?

I did say it was just an idea!

Thread needs to be renamed to reflect the new chassis name, the TL11.

http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/89072

Could it be renamed to also include the engine as well, so is "Team Lotus-Renault TL11" posible???

The team has announced that the car will be revealed to the public via its online magazine Team Lotus Notes.
They must be kidding, right?

Im still not a fan of the Thread title, it should be Team Lotus-Renault TL11 in my opinion.

Yeah, ESP is right the title should read Team Lotus.... but I would delete the Renault. I was highly confused when reading the new thread title. I think we shouldnt call the RB 7 thread RB 7 Renault either. Ok we do it everywhere, only forgot Williams...

Im looking as the size of the Renault badge on the nose cone above the tastefully sized Team Lotus badge.
