Lotus may not win many races in 2015 [zero is our prediction and we think Vegas is with us on that] but if there is ever a definition for “style over substance” – you will surely find the 2014-15 Lotus F1 Racing Team mentioned in that definition somewhere. Last year, Lotus jumped one of their semi-trucks over an F1 car that was driving under the truck’s jumping ramp. This year, they have glommed onto what will surely be a megahit – the latest movie in the Mad Max film franchise, “Mad Max: Fury Road” – with a specialized tie-in to the movie in the form of a Mad Max-fied car complete with machine guns, skulls, spikes and road warrior double wheelage in the rear.
“Mad Max: Fury Road” opens in theaters on May 15, 2015.
The 2015 Formula One season continues with the Spanish Grand Prix in Barcelona at 5 a.m. [PDT] on NBCSN on May 10, 2015.
