Ah yes, the Courages! I’ve resided myself to the fact that supporting Courage is an exercise in futility. Their reliability is absolutely woeful. One wonders if they are actively tackling these issues or whether they just wheel out the cars again and again with the offending part(s) repaired/new ones fitted and then hoping against hope it wouldn’t break this time!

I remember reading quite a while ago when the LC70 was introduced that they had to make a bit of a rapid change of engine (Judd to AER?), it feels like they’ve never really got on top of things ever since. The Gounon car starts well as always and tends to run about 4th but then after the first hour you just know its going stop out on the track somewhere. It is so frustrating! How on earth can they hope to attract sponsors and develop the car to the point where it can actually win something? Maybe Yves Courage and some of the drivers have very loyal sponsors who don’t mind putting their hand into their pockets or someone is bank rolling the whole project and results don’t really matter at this point!
Well maybe next year they will have Acura power and parts!
