The Pheonix car is for sale, plus an unraced car, plus there are the two used by Larbre, plus (probably) the two BMS cars. So there are plenty of DBR9's around! I just hope they get Prodrive to update one of the older cars to current spec or ,indeed, borrow 008 from last year. I doubt they would use one of the JetAlliance cars as they have a FIA GT race the following weekend. So,no, green Aston's this year then! |

It's a shame there are only three Porsche in GT2. The Ferrari 430 has become efficient enough. The proportions were inverted before.

2006. Jan Lammers chalked it up to driver error in the RFH Dome. Now I have heard accounts of the throttle sticking. I guess we will never know the truth, but we will never forget his formula 1 experience. Always beaten by his teammate in the Minardi. |

They've yet to prove they can run a competitive car at Le Mans, nevermind two, plus support, I assume, for a customer. Has a Creation ever been running competitively at the halfway mark? They ran one car last year and gradually improved. Running two cars in the LMS, supporting their ALMS customer, and running a single factory entry at Le Mans, plus backing a privateer, may be a blessing in disguise. |

The dutch will never forgive him for crashing a perfectly placed RfH Dome. The boy had never even driven in nightconditions before he entered Le Mans and the way he crashed it was,wel,classical really. In the deep of the night,shortly after he got behind the wheel... |

no no why would bartels do that? he runs a quality shop, that to me looks BETTER than the works astons- his team is second to none in sportscar racing. Their garage at Spa was simply mind blowing, and they are devistatingly efficient. I reckon they'll rent one, test the nuts off it, know it inside out, and then...who knows, they might even win it. And who ever said maserati swap for aston p1, that's not a bad shout though. |

Corvette to have same driver line-ups as last year: http://www.motorsport.com/news/artic...FS=ALMS-LEMANS
I wonder, did Carsport Holland apply? Would have made a very strong entry! Especially since they blew LAA away at Spa 24!! DK |

AMR is going to have a huge presence at Le Mans this year. Gulf cars, Vitaphone car, The P1 coupe.
They may have more staff than Audi there. |
