As you say though, if they're still working on a deal for the second half of the ALMS season, it sounds like they might be cutting it fine to get anyone into the second Le Mans entry- unless they're doing a separate deal for that, maybe selling seats to European drivers for LM only?

For the past few years, Dyson has always had two Lolas, and used one as more of a rolling parts shelf. I suspect they've done the same with the new B12, ordering two, using one just as a parts donor, but are considering putting it into action now.
