Well keeps the costs down, but the car looks good anyway

It looks as though my lad will be working on that car now instead of the G-Drive by Algarve... He works for Nielsen anyway on their P3.

It'll certainly be good to have a team and car to support.

Not sure Gert, I don't actually know the level of the tie-up between Nielsen and Algarve (and I'm not sure my lad does either ).

I would assume if they had a big tie-up Nielsen would probably run on Goodyear too instead of Michelin. I assume Nielsen don't own an LMP2 car, so they would have to lease/borrow one anyhow. |

Nielsen will race on Michelins
The car is leased from APR - the car they have is a new chassis replacing the one damaged at Ricard (which would otherwise have been the one they took on lease) Without the COVID crisis the team may well have already obtained their own LMP2 - that plan is delayed |

I know we can't be there, and the field is not particularly exciting, and the world has gone mad...
BUT IT'S RACE WEEK, MY FRIENDS! |

Indeed so. Sadly my excitement level is slightly less than it normally would be at this point, but hey-ho.... My lad is off to France tomorrow so I'd appreciate it if everyone could give a shout out (to their TVs) for the #24 P2 car! I think he'll be on tyre changes, so look out for their pit stops!

Anybody want to take a crack at a race thread? Don't think I have one in me this year.

Confirmation that Andy Blackmore's Spotter's Guide is on its way. I was worried we weren't going to get one this year:
