Lotus F1 Team presented Mad Max Hybrid racing car

Lotus F1 Team, in co-operation with Warner Bros. Pictures, has prepared a radical-looking proposal for an alternative Formula 1 future. The vehicle, named Lotus F1 Team Mad Max Hybrid, is a fusion of Formula 1 technology reimagined for a post-apocalyptic future to coincide with the 15 May 2015 launch of the epic action adventure Mad Max:Fury Road.

Fitted with special accessories and heavy modifications for a world gone mad, the Lotus F1 Team Mad Max Hybrid was unveiled at the Barcelona International Motor Show at the Montjuic Exhibition Centre – at the same location for four Spanish Grand Prix between 1969-1975, along with two custom, drivable vehicles designed and created for the film:  Nux’s car and the iconic Mad Max Interceptor.

Accompanying the vehicles was Lotus F1 Team’s Romain Grosjean and Pastor Maldonado, both of whom will drive Mad Max:Fury Road-branded cars competing in the Spanish Grand Prix.

“Lotus F1 Team is always viewed as a challenger team, so this was a fantastic opportunity to work with Warner Bros. Pictures on the concept of producing a Formula 1 car for the ultimate challenge of the nightmare scenario of an apocalyptic society seemingly headed for oblivion. This car acknowledges the tenacious nature of Lotus F1 Teamno matter what the rules in Formula 1’s future, we are here to stay and compete”, said Matthew Carter, Lotus F1 Team CEO.
