Caterham enters the 2012 season with a simple goal – scoring a point.
In its first two seasons, then known as Lotus, the Tony Fernandes-led squad proved the best of the other new-in-2010 startups including Virgin (now Marussia) and HRT. However the green-coloured car is still yet to score a point.
“That must be the goal, but we are also realistic,” Malaysian Fernandes told Brazil’s Corride de Formula 1. “We want to take steps forward in the right direction towards building long-term success. But the fact is that the only way to do that is to beat the teams that are ahead of us.
“All of them scored points in 2011,” he said, chiefly referring to Williams. “So to beat them, we will at least have to score a point. That has to be the goal.”
