yes i know.

the budget for lotus f1 junior team is reaching 8 million euros budget every year right now.

The question is to wonder how to make everything more cost efficient from karting to Formula Renault 2.0.

It is not quite normal to see the prices of Karting while you can do French F4 for 50K€ per season.

Because now from Eurocup 2.0 or F3 you reach very very high level of preparation from teams but also drivers through their schemes.

It is interesting to see the gap in terms of progression between Gasly and Vaxivière. vaxivière did beat gasly in F4 and in early 2013 but then he completely stalled in his progression while Gasly had a steep margin.
