They certainly built a windtunnel model and the car was given a designated name - the B10/30 (or MB-01 in deference to Birrane)

Of course Lola were a better prospect than US F1, that was easily apparent from the outset. I just think it was more than being the best team - they couldn't just include 3 new British teams because the teams from other countries would accuse Mosley of being biased towards the Brits
