I should have quoted Chris Dyson verbatim, to be fair to him. Here is what he said:
Quote:
Hi Kate. Sorry it took me a few days to get back in touch with you. I
was in Le Castellet, France (Paul Ricard circuit) testing for the past few
days, and didn't have the means of returning email.

> We did in fact receive an automatic invitation to this year's 24 Hours of
Le Mans due to our LMP675 championship success in 2003. We declined to take
up the invitation for a variety of reasons, none of which I really care to
discuss.
>
> Personally, I am almost sure of doing this year's race with Jan Lammers'
Racing for Holland team, with whom I tested at Paul Ricard. We should be
finalizing things in the next few days.
>
> Best regards,
> Chris Dyson
