Lotus on the right track in F1 mission, insists boss Fernandes

LOTUS RACING boss Tony Fernandes feels he has succeeded in creating a team far different to any other in Formula One.

Fernandes wore a smile as broad as the proverbial Cheshire cat in the wake of Lotus’ debut performance in Bahrain 10 days ago after a 16-year absence.

Heikki Kovalainen and Jarno Trulli were classified 15th and 17th, sandwiching the more established Toro Rosso of Sebastien Buemi.
