Hopefully by that he means more than just aesthetics of L.
Regarding new P1 and waiting of partners... hasn't that been the case since the beginning? Last year they wanted engine partners and other things and got none. So basically still hoping and waiting since the very first announcement.
Obviously Ligier's rebranding money for P2 isn't high enough for P1 cash needs
on second thought, would be nice if mods can move this to Oak Racing thread, thanks
