The Group Lotus v. Team Lotus debacle went to court yesterday. The judge threw out a summary judgment application filed by Group Lotus, and set a court date for March 21st to start the trial.

That's after Bahrain, so both teams will at least start the year with the Lotus name.

And, of course, both sides are spinning yesterday's court hearing as a win for their side.

The increasing level of tension between the parties will make for interesting times in testing and at the first race in Bahrain, where the Lotus-Renault of Team Lotus will compete against the Lotus-sponsored Renault of Lotus Renault GP. Or something like that…
