Former Caterham F1 headquarters in Leafield, Oxfordshire, UK. Image taken two years after the company went into administration and shows the extensive vandalism and metal theft caused. Once under the name of Lotus, "Caterham's" failed to score a single point whilst in Formula 1 competition. Going into receivership in May 2015 the buildings have remained empty with no interest for any sale. A local source mentioned that the site was originally built for British Telecommunications as part of their training facilities during the 1970s It then went on to provide a base for the also defunct Arrow and Super Aguri Formula 1 teams before Caterham's took it over. Image was taken in August 2017
