Lotus is set to take centre stage at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in 2012 as the company celebrates 60 years since the first Lotus company was founded by Colin Chapman in 1952, and the 50th anniversary of the iconic Lotus Elan sportscar.

The enviable global reputation that Lotus enjoys today grew out of Chapman’s unparalleled technical ingenuity to dominate all levels of motor sport, from club racing to Formula 1, to create a glorious and enduring legacy.

To date Lotus has gone on to win 13 Formula 1 World Championships (six drivers, and seven constructers titles), and a spectacular collection of these victorious F1 cars will be at Goodwood in the summer, along with an impressive selection of Lotus Indycars, saloons, sports and road cars, all forming a key attraction at the 2012 Festival of Speed.  A wealth of current and ex-works Lotus drivers are also expected to appear at Goodwood.
