Driver Market is still open and it’s hot like hell. In our last news we tried to explain some backgrounds, but the truth is: Everything is crazy. Are there any good news?

Max Chilton has joined Lotus-Renault and he will stay at Lotus-Renault.

Currently the market is pretty strange with the exact nature of some deals ouside the public eye. Despite some controversy surrounding a number of deals involving third drivers, the FIA President has stated the deals will stay for the time being. Whether this is fair or not, we’ll let you decide.

The deals made in the last few days are very complex and seem like little puzzles, where every piece is very important. Hopefully we will get more information, when the season starts, but currently nobody is able to understand them. You know what’s good about these complex puzzles? If a puzzle-piece is missing, the puzzle doesn’t make sense. In this case, we strongly think, Chilton is one of these pieces and you know where this piece is? It’s at Lotus-Renault.

We strongly underline that Max will stay at Lotus. We will say “No” every time you ask us as there isn’t any better driver currently for our team. We are very happy with Chilton, because we tried to get him last season, too. You know what happened? Manor was faster, but now we are on the winning side. Now, finally this piece completes our puzzle. Next season will be tough, but Max will help us through it.
