The F1 Team That Got Auctioned Off on eBay: Hilarious Misery Of Caterham

This is the unbelievable, ridiculous, and kind of hilarious story of Caterham F1 — one of the most hopeless, mismanaged, yet unforgettable teams in Formula 1 history.

Led by Tony Fernandes, a man who thought owning an F1 team could be run like a budget airline, Caterham went from zero to...well, still zero. They didn’t score a single championship point in five seasons, but they did manage to start a legal dispute with Group Lotus, build a car in what was basically a vacuum cleaner, and confuse the entire F1 paddock with a naming saga that made no sense to anyone except their lawyers.
We take a look at how Heikki Kovalainen — yes, that Heikki Kovalainen — went from racing at McLaren to dragging a green-and-yellow couch around the grid, all while trying to act like this was totally fine. Jarno Trulli was there too. And somehow, through all of it, the team just kept going. Until they didn’t.

If you're just sick of hearing about Red Bull domination and want to remember the weird, messy, and human side of F1, you’re in the right place. This is not just about racing results — it's about everything that went wrong behind the scenes.
