Lotus has new sponsors like Burns (12/15 millions) and now Honeywell to be confirmed (> 20 millions). Total is a private sponsor for Grosjean and Lotus (10 millions)
Because he doesn't bring the money that other drivers do.

I agree, also i heard Total give 30 millions for Grosjean + sponsor Total on car not 10. Koba would maybe bring his 10 millions what he collected but if you watching this on long terms he wont bring more money that numeral. In Grosjean case, this is 3x more money for same/similar option for Lotus.

I think its only fair that Grosjean be given another chance to prove himself, as it is not the he is slow, just that he is accident prone. Just like Massa during his early years.

Something about a saying, stating that third time is the charm or something or other.

In this case, maybe "fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me" would be more apt :lol:

Yes! That's my line of thinking here. But I may eat my words if he turns it around this year.

I think and I hope we ll see a different Grosjean this year. Its gonna be a very close fight between all the teams and I dnt see any reason why Lotus will not be fighting for winS. A consistent Grosjean will shave off a lot of crucial points at the top which will be fantastic for us.

Lotus will definitely win more than 1 race this year, that's all I know
And so you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further. With your mind power, your determination, your instinct, and the experience as well, you can fly very high.

They couldn't win one on pace last year. They'd be lucky to win more than one this year.

They didn't win when the car had the pace, but won when it didn't. Funny how it turned out.

So you are wrong, they had winning pace
