Lotus might have some problems at the managerial level, but the guys on the ground and in the motorsport division are keeping things steady and calm. They’re so relaxed that to celebrate their LMP2 car’s inaugural race at Sebring they hired Hollywood Designer Simon, who has worked on movies like Tron: Legacy, to make this clip for them. He is also responsible for the cool black and gold livery Lotus LMP2 is sporting.
At the 12 Hours of Sebring Lotus team finished in 6th place in the LMP2 category and 10th overall.
