Default First F1, now Lotus is joining GT2.

GT2 is going to be fun....

A nice Christmas Eve present comes from Jetalliance Racing this year. The Austrian team has confirmed its plans to run a pair of Lotus Evora GT2 in the 2011 Intercontinental Le Mans Cup and will become the Lotus factory squad in GT2.

Team owner Lukas Lichtner-Hoyer confirmed the news today. “I’m very pleased that we were able to seal this collaboration before the end of this year, and now I’m really proud to be able to cooperate with the traditional Lotus marque,” said Lichtner-Hoyer.

Jetalliance Racing has confirmed it will field a driver line-up that will be a mixture of pro and amateur racers in the seven rounds of the Intercontinental Le Mans Cup. More details on the project will be known in early March when the team has planned its official presentation.

Lotus must have stopped building cars and started printing money? We'll see if the presses run out of ink soon...
