The fact that they made it this far is surprising, and his team's run in the 2011 24 Hours of Le Mans before the crash at the Porsche Curves is something to behold. Henri has no Swiss watches or Muscle Milk to sell and is not a real estate mogul, and the sponsor he had difficulty with has now pulled out of the sport all together along with Oreca's program in LMP1.

Not to mention France itself isn't exactly in it's finest position right now especially if you're trying to run any kind of business that doesn't involve government contracts.
