Caterham has announced that Hari Roberts has joined the Formula 1 team as head of aerodynamics.

Hari will be working closely with technical director Mark Smith and performance director John Iley. He brings with him a wealth of aerodynamics, trackside and simulation experience from his previous roles which includes working with Jordan, Renault, and, most recently, Lotus, giving him the perfect platform to play an important role in Caterham's long-term plans to challenge for honours in F1.

"I am excited about the challenge that lies ahead with Caterham and I am delighted to have renewed my working partnership with Mark, and started a new partnership with the whole team. Caterham has the potential to grow into a serious force in F1 and I am looking forward to playing an integral role in helping the team fulfill its potential."
