Hi,

I just noticed that "Russian Helicopters" have a sizeable advert on the side of a Lotus in F1 this year. Has there been any other helicopters companies in the past sponsoring in F1?
I guess Alan Mann might of? And perhaps Heli-Air Monaco?

Just to clarify, Caterham are the team sponsored by Russian Helicopters.

They used to be called Lotus, but the current Lotus team are the old Renault team.

Simples! :ok:

And one of Caterham's drivers for this year is Vitaly Petrov.

Who comes from... Russia. Hence the plethora of Russian sponsors.
