Team Lotus, now officially renamed as Caterham F1, have set their sights on starting to beat the more experienced teams in 2012.The name change marks the formal end to the dispute over the Lotus name in F1.Chief technical officer Mike Gascoyne said: "It's time to take the fight to the more established teams and start beating them.
The outfit have finished 10th of 12 teams in the two seasons since they entered F1.Team Lotus beat HRT and Virgin, but they have been unable to bridge the gap to the back of the midfield apart from on a handful of occasions.But two consecutive seasons of finishing 10th ensures them a greater share of F1's prize money and the team, in their new guise, are confident that can be the springboard to beating the lower midfield runners, such as Williams, Toro Rosso and Sauber.
