I think it works better in the black background than white. But should be interesting to see in track and at night

You go to all that effort and then, oh well perhaps Rebellion will have a merchantising stand, you might pick up one of their watches, not really my taste but they cost more than an arm and a leg.

Seems like Rebellion will be down a few drivers next season, looks like Jani is switching to Formula E full time instead of both. But he is driving for Porsche so probably not a bad choice to make honestly. Dagys also thinking aloud about Lotterer may make the same choice. Of course all these should be taken with the S365 grain(s?) of salt.

I believe Jani said he'd choose a factory drive in any series, because you don't turn them down. With FE teams flooding money at simulators, the drivers "off" weekends are taken up too.

Laurent off to Toyota to sit in the pits and watch. I wouldn't mind seeing DHH back in a Prototype - he was fantastic in the LMP2 Oreca.

In DSC's LMP1 preview it states that:

It will be looking to repeat that feat at the very least this time out and to achieve it they field new low-downforce aero, a mildly upgraded Gibson GL 458 (some 209bhp up on the units fielded by DragonSpeed and ByKolles) and its usual stellar driver line-ups.
209bhp more???? that has to be a typo right?

Anyway, have Rebellion some kind of exclusiveness with Gibson?

Thanks guys, I figured 20 hp increase would be more realistic! Maybe they have a financial deal with Gibson to test the new motors before they are available?

Or they were the only ones to pony up the cash for the new engine? Bykolles is just getting the engine in and testing and Dragonspeed is on the way out. If I was Gibson I'd want it in the Rebellion over the other options as well.

Seems a bit harsh. They were third at Le Mans last year and they're best non-factory team in the WEC Standings this year (and I think every year they've entered P1). 2017 they were LMP2 WEC Champions. Won Petit Le Mans twice. Seems it does work quite a bit.
