Ratzenberger should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Oh how I loved the scream of the Lola Aston... but just imagine how raw a V8 powered LMP from the GTE would sound, as great as the AMR1?

Yep, RLM have suggested it for the last few weeks and have said that Rebellion should make an announcement at Spa, so it all ties together.

Hmm, I wonder where they will place their production, and if it's a constructor partnership with a known manufacture (former Lola, Dassult or Dallara?)

A close partnership with Multimatic (ex-Lola) to build a new LMP1 chassis would appear to be the most logical choice. One may wonder if Rebellion will switch to a new engine supplier...

Got to respect Rebellion for going out there and getting it done. It would have been so easy for them to get dissuaded but they've stuck at it.

I hope the new project can bring in something new to LMP1 - hopefully an engine.

Am I the only one thinking about Porsche? It was said that they was going to make their debut after Le Mans and maybe it's too son for the new Rebellion car.....

In a reply to his tweet Dagys confirmed the announcement wasn't anything to do with the big three. All signs point to Rebellion I think.

John Dagys confirmed in one of his tweets that this had nothing to do with either Porsche, Audi or Toyota.

Edit: Simmi got it first

Thats just a story you tell the kids so they eat their vegetables .

on a seriously note:
The LMP2 got a late presentation and in general seemed to be a little late, so therefor I don't think a LMP1 presentation is due.

I think we can discount Lotus, they are currently having a hard time of it and would be unable to raise the sort of money involved

Forgive me if I'm wrong but it sounds like they already have raised the money involved having inked the Praga deal? Remember it's not Lotus the car company as such that runs the team.

We are not talking about a car badged as "Lotus" but the design and building of a complete LMP1 car, before you can put a lotus/praga sign on a car you must first have that car, previous lotus LMP2 and the rebellion car already existed.

Don't 100% understand what you mean. The new Lotus/Praga/Kodewa LMP2 is built to 2014 LMP1 regulations so the design has essentially been done.

Previous Lotus LMP2 was just a re-badged Lola. So this new car was a clean sheet of paper. Rebellion might be a brand new design too for all we know.

Well when this brand new lotus design appears and runs I will admit that my doubts were wrong but at the moment I am not convinced it will ever get anywhere

Well there we have it folks, the new manufacturer is Aston.

The Lola is just a test bed for the mechanicals, the actual car will be revealed sometime after LM. Apparently a few teams have been approached to run the car as backup to the works pair including a group by the name of Ten Tenths AMR, who more often then not are mistaken for homeless people in pitlane and are asked to move on by the marshals there

Dont ask me how I know all this, Dave Richards told me not to tell anyone.
