STRONG RACE COMES TO AN EARLY END

Monaco, 16th May 2010

Lotus Racing leave Monaco with mixed emotions after a very impressive display during the race came to an early end for both cars with only a few laps remaining. Despite this, the team demonstrated impressive pace throughout the race, making good on the promise shown in practice and qualifying, and will see the race as another step forward in experience and performance.

Heikki Kovalainen (Lotus Cosworth T127-01, retired lap 59) “It was a fantastic race right from the beginning. I had a bit of a struggle at the restarts to get the tyres up to temperature, but once I got everything working I was able to almost keep up with the Renault. I was pushing very hard, and the car felt fantastic – the balance was really good. Just before I retired I could feel the steering alignment was a bit uneven – on the right hand corners I had to use maximum lock, even in the tunnel, and it got the point where it didn’t feel safe anymore. In Monaco you can’t take a risk with it so I came in. It was a mechanical issue, but despite that I’m really pleased with today. We again showed we’re firmly the best of the new teams and we are nearly there with the next group, so I think we just need to keep attacking, and that’s how we’ll achieve results.”

Jarno Trulli (Lotus Cosworth T127-03: Classified 15th) “This wasn’t a great weekend for me. After we had a problem with the wheelgun in the pitstop I was stuck behind the HRTs and trying to find room to overtake – in the last lap Karun seemed slow through the second and third sector, and I’d seen he was leaving room at Rascasse, so I tried to get through but we touched and that was that – the end of the race. It was one of those things – a racing incident, but I still feel like we’re going in the right direction as a team, and I want to put the bad luck behind me when we get back on track in Turkey.”

Mike Gascoyne, Chief Technical Officer: “This was our strongest performance yet compared to the midfield, so obviously mixed emotions for where we finished. Heikki had a very strong race and in the middle his performance was particularly good compared to the midfield group. It’s a shame we had a problem on his car - the steering joint failed, something we’ve not seen before - but overall it was a very positive weekend for him. For Jarno, he had a much more difficult weekend, clearly struggling with the balance of the car and I think as a team we have to take a look at everything to be able to do a better job for him. Obviously he was compromised by the slow pitstop, which dropped him down the field and affected his whole race. He was capable of going much faster and when he made the move he unfortunately fell victim to the nature of the Monaco circuit. So I leave feeling pleased we showed such good pace, and we move on to Turkey.”

Tony Fernandes: “I take a lot of positives from the race today and it was another one where we had at least one car classified. Most importantly Heikki made a great step forward and it was fantastic watching him race with Petrov. He and the whole team felt it was the best race of the season for him and that boosts confidence further for the season ahead. We’ve got some more new parts coming which will continue to take us forward, and hopefully Jarno’s luck will turn, but even with that we’re all pleased. It’s also great to see so many of our fans out around the track - hopefully we gave them some good racing today, and in years to come we’ll give them some good results as well.”

强大的比赛来决定提前结束

摩纳哥，2010年5月16日

莲花车队离开后，百感交集在比赛中显示摩纳哥非常可观的两辆赛车都来为早日结束，只剩下几个圈。尽管如此，球队表现出令人印象深刻的整个比赛的步伐，在实践中作出的承诺和排位赛表现良好，并会与另一个在经验和业绩的一步比赛。

科瓦莱宁（莲花考斯沃斯T127 - 01，退休59圈）“这是一个梦幻般的比赛从一开始的权利。我有一个位在重新启动的斗争获得了轮胎温度，但是一旦我得到的一切工作，我几乎能跟上雷诺了。我推非常艰苦，赛车的感觉很棒 - 平衡也很不错。就在我退休我能感觉到转向对准有点不平衡的右边的角落，我不得不用最大的锁 - 即使在隧道，它抓住了问题的地方并没有感到安全了。在摩纳哥，你不能把它的风险，所以我进来这是一个机械的问题，但是，尽管我很满意今天的高兴。我们再次坚定地表明我们的新车队最好，我们几乎没有下一个组中，所以我认为我们只需要保持进攻，这就是我们将如何取得成果。“

亚诺特鲁利（莲花考斯沃斯T127 - 03：分类15日）“这不是一个我非常周末。当我们同在的时候，我背后的HRTs，并试图寻找空间超越进站wheelgun一个问题 - 在最后一圈卡伦似乎减缓的第二和第三部门，而且我看到他离开房间时拉斯卡塞，所以我就先通过，但我们感动，这是 - 在比赛结束。这是一个人的东西 - 一个比赛事故，但我仍想我们作为一个团队在正确的方向前进的心情，我希望把我后面的运气不好，当我们回到正轨在土耳其。“

迈克加斯科因，首席技术主任：“这是我们最强的性能相比，但中场，这么明显的混合情绪，我们完成了。科瓦莱宁有一个非常强大的比赛，中间他的表现特别好相比，中场组。这是一个耻辱，我们对他的汽车一个问题 - 转向节失败，这是我们从来没见过的 - 但总体来说它是一个对他非常积极的周末。对于亚诺，他有一个更加困难的周末，明确奋斗与赛车的平衡，我作为一个团队，我们必须采取一切看在能够为他做更好的工作的想法。很明显，他是受到损害的缓慢进站，下降，他从外地和影响了他的整场比赛。他是有能力去得更快，当他提出的动议，他不幸的受害者到摩纳哥赛道的特性。所以我感觉高兴离开我们发现这么好的速度，我们对土耳其的做法。“

托尼费尔南德斯说：“我从今天的比赛很多，它的阳性是一个又一个，我们至少有一辆汽车分类。最重要的是科瓦莱宁作出了很大的进步，这是看他和彼得罗夫精彩的比赛。他和整个团队认为这是对他个人的赛季最好的一场比赛，而本赛季的信心增强了进一步前进。我们已经有了一些新的部件未来将继续带领我们前进，并希望雅诺的运气会转，但即便如此，我们都感到高兴。它也是非常高兴看到周围的赛道，所以不少人离开了我们的球迷 - 希望我们给他们一些好的赛车今天，在今后几年，我们就会给他们一些好成绩。“

Lotus eyeing new engine supplier for 2011 - report
Racing series           F1
Date         2010-05-16

By Motorsport.com/GMM

Lotus could be contemplating a change of engine supplier for its second season in Formula One.

That is the claim of Heikki Kulta, the F1 correspondent for the Finnish newspaper Turun Sanomat.

Veteran Kulta, who has been attending grands prix since 1983, is known for his close relationships with Finnish drivers, including Lotus' Kovalainen.

He reported from Monaco that Lotus, the most impressive of F1's three new teams this year, will unveil one more big aerodynamic update for the British Grand Prix and then turn its attention to the 2011 car.

Kulta said Lotus is eyeing a change of engine supplier, having entered F1 with FIA-preferred Cosworth in 2010.

"I am very confident that next year we will have a good car, which we will be able to build over a longer period," Kovalained is quoted as saying.

"This car was a rush but next year our team will be seen in the real way," he added.

It has been reported that Renault is willing to supply another team, and the very best advertisement for its product was Saturday's 1-2-3 in Monaco qualifying.

Mercedes' V8 is known to be the most powerful in F1, but Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel said the driveability of the Renault V8 is paying off on the streets of Monaco.

"If you have the first three cars in qualifying with the Renault engine I think that's a positive note," said the German.
