Kimi Raikkonen and Romain Grosjean were at hand at Lotus F1 HQ in Enstone, Oxfordshire, to unveil the new 2012 car called the E20.

That E is actually an homage to the Enstone facility, which Lotus is very proud of. The car features the same classic black and gold livery as last year’s car, and it has the same stepped nose as any other car on the 2012 grid.

The front-exiting exhausts are gone in the E20 though, being illegal according to new rules.

He will be be racing alongside Romain Grosjean who’s just been promoted to a race seat.
