Also, noted in an article on DSC that the two cars at Spa are both 2009 cars. One of the Barcelona cars was apparently based on one of the 2008 Charouz tubs. So, I guess the 2008 tub will be used as the basis of the 3rd Le Mans car.........or not?

And looking to run three cars after Le Mans with a strong driver line-up if possible.

Maybe Drayson will buy a P1 for next season?

Why do the Aston Lola's have these dark blue airintakes? For me it doesn't fit in the color scheme, but that's just me.

Better than slime green or flourescent pink, though.

That's right, though I could only think the blue comes from the Union Jack. Btw, I love that italian flag on the racing box lola's!

The OAK racingcar carried a nice'nd agressive livery,but the real beauty's surely were the LMP1 Astons.

Boy,the way these things cut through traffic! That's were one can see the difference between the privat and the factory teams,I think.
And this sound......

Great news for the dutch fans and Aston Martin: Jos Verstappen is in the final car! Now I hope they team him up with guys who can match his pace.

Although the news until Thursday officially made known RTL GP welingelichte sources in England had confirmed that Jos Verstappen for Aston Martin within 24 hours of Le Mans is run.

Davidson
Which car is driving Verstappen is still not clear. RTL GP assumes that it is third factory car. Anthony Davidson may be one of his teammates. The Brit has Aston Martin team boss David Richards of his stay in Formula 1 at BAR. Moreover, Davidson drove to Richards' Prodrive team already Petit Le Mans.

Last year
This is good news for Verstappen and his fans. It was still around this season Limburger triumphs last season fourth in the Le Mans Series and the 24 hours of Le Mans with Jeroen Bleekemolen and Peter Brand Steijn.


Conversations
The project of Van Note Steijn Motorsport after a year put stop because the objectives were achieved. Verstappen was looking for a chair, but conversations with Epsilon Euskadi and Pescarolo ran on nothing.
