Formula One 2014 Driver Line-ups - What We Know So Far
Lotus Current Drivers: Kimi Raikkonen / Romain Grosjean Confirmed Drivers: No officially confirmed drivers. The Lotus team have also improved compared to the previous season. Despite a troubled first year with the team, Romain Grosjean has improved markedly becoming much more consistent. His performance in Suzuka was particularly impressive. It looks as if Lotus are looking to retain the Frenchmans services. Kimi Raikkonen has scored numerous podiums and a race win this season and stands third in the championship. Due, at least in part, to a pay dispute with Lotus though Raikkonen will not be driving for them next season. There has been lots of reports for replacements including Felipe Massa, Paul Di Resta and Nico Hulkenberg. Massa is obviously free as he is being replaced at Ferarri by Raikkonen. Di Restas future at Force India is not certain leading to speculation he is set to leave. However it seems that Hulkenberg is the favourite for the race seat.
