Team Lotus wins right to keep its name

Updated



A judge has ruled in the high court that Tony Fernandes's F1 team can continue to use its Team Lotus name.

Justice Peter Smith ruled that Group Lotus, which is behind the Renault team that is racing in the classic black and gold livery, can use the 'Lotus' name on its own on its cars. However, Team Lotus is also allowed to keep its name, but only with the 'Team' attached.
