various race series will present the Lotus
Motorsport offering and detail some of the
exciting things to come.
Lotus Director of Motorsport Claudio Berro said:
“I’m pretty sure everyone will be excited to see
the new F1 livery up close at the NEC, but in
addition to F1, the show will be the first time
so many of our race cars will be united in one
location. The event will provide the perfect
opportunity for fans of the Lotus marque to come
and have a look at the exciting developments we
have made in the past year. We’re also delighted
to bring our IndyCar to the show especially as
we will be celebrating the 100th Indy 500 race
with the Indianapolis Motor Speedway this year.
“From F1, the pinnacle of open wheel racing, to
the Lotus Academy, where the general public can
learn to race like a pro, we’re confident that
there’s something to appeal to every race fan.”
Alongside the famous race cars on display will
be the extraordinary Type 125, the F1 inspired
customer race car from Lotus. There will be an
exciting announcement around this car as it
makes its European debut.
