For you younger F1 audiences, you may not know that Team Lotus are one of the most successful teams in the history of the racing series.

Let's go through the numbers...

Seven constructors' championships, six driver's championships, 74 race victories and 102 pole positions.

Their history of drivers is also very impressive that has seen the likes of Graham Hill, Jim Clark, Stirling Moss and Nigel Mansell represent the team.

Some of their noted staff include Peter Wright, Peter Warr, Keith Duckworth and Frank Dernie.

But some of you younger generations may remember Lotus making a return in 2010 when Tony Fernandes brought back the team.

In 2010, the car was a green and gold livery before brought back the legendary black and gold livery.

The 2019 Haas livery copies the Lotus look.

A return to F1 for Lotus would certainly be exciting but no sign of it in the mean time.
