Not very long ago, Lotus got themselves in a bit of trouble for tweeting a picture of two rabbits getting up close and personal when Kimi Raikkonen decided to leave them for Ferrari in 2014. However, as they say, all publicity is good publicity, and the best part of 20,000 tweets suggest that it got around the internet in a hurry: So #Kimi is off to #Ferrari for 2014; it hurts a little bit…...
