Nākamajā F1 sezonā trīs komandām būs jauni nosaukumi
F1 Komisijas notikušajā sēdē tika nolemts atļaut trim F1 čempionātā startējošajām komandām 2012. gadā nomainīt savus līdzšinējos nosaukumus.
Vakar Ženēvā notika F1 Komisijas sēde, kurā tika izskatīta iespēja trīs komandām (''Team Lotus'', ''Renault'' un ''Virgin Racing'') nākamajā sezonā mainīt nosaukumus. Šajā sēdē tika pieņemts lēmums atļaut šīm vienībām mainīt nosaukumus, taču oficiāli tas jāapstiprina FIA Pasaules motoru sporta padomes sēdē, kura notiks 7.decembrī. Taču uztraukumam un bažām, ka šīs izmaiņas varētu tikt noraidītas, nevajadzētu būt, jo šādas sēdes parasti ir tikai formalitātes.
Līdz ar to nākamajā gadā “Team Lotus” komanda sauksies par “Caterham”, “Renault” pārtaps par “Lotus”, savukārt “Virgin Racing” kļūs par “Marussia”. Atgādināsim, ka pagājušā gada izskaņā Krievijas sporta automobiļu ražotājs ''Marussia Motors'' iegādājies lielu daļu F1 komandas ''Virgin Racing'' akciju. Toreiz Krievijas kompānijas vadītājs Nikolajs Fomenko izteicās, ka viņa mērķis 2012. gadā ir panākt to, lai uz starta formulā izietu komanda ar nosaukumu – ''Marussia''. Sapņi piepildās.

The Lotus name returned to Formula One for the 2010 season, when a new Malaysian team called Lotus Racing, using the Lotus name on licence from Group Lotus, was awarded an entry. The new team was unrelated to the previous incarnation of Team Lotus when it was first founded, although it was funded by a Malaysian Consortium including Proton (the owner of Lotus Cars). After a dispute between the two parties (Lotus Racing and Proton), Group Lotus, with agreement from their parent company Proton, terminated the licence for future seasons as a result of what it called "flagrant and persistent breaches of the licence by the team". Lotus Racing then announced that they had acquired Team Lotus Ventures Ltd, the company led by David Hunt since 1994, during which Team Lotus had stopped competing in Formula One, and with it full ownership of the rights of the Team Lotus brand and heritage. The team confirmed that they would be known as Team Lotus from 2011 onwards.
In December 2010 Group Lotus (Proton) announced the creation of "Lotus Renault GP", the successor to the Renault F1 team, that is contesting the 2011 season having purchased a title sponsorship deal with the team with the option to buy shares in the future. The team's cars will continue to be called "Renaults", up against the Team Lotus cars which will be known as "Lotus".
