Because it has always been this way, BMW's works race cars have always been predominantly white with a hint of blue and red, BMW Motorsport's colors.

I think it's great that they carry on this tradition and never let any sponsor pick the colors.

Plus, beautiful cars don't rely on a fancy livery for looking good. Wait for Le Mans and you´ll get a beautiful BMW art car to enjoy, one of the few instances of BMW dropping their traditional scheme.

The BMW is simple and that works well. The E90 series of BMW's look pretty ghastly with a fussy paint job but that might just be me. I should be slapped for asking this, but alas my brain has farted and i am without knowledge. But, are BMW running the whole of the LMS season for 2010 or just selected races?
Would love to see the M3 at Silverstone in September.

Select races I think, probably less after Le Mans.

But they planned to do the Spa 24hrs which might not happen now, given nobody knows if the GT2s will even be eglible...so they might do some more LMS after that, depends on the success too I guess.

The Oreca Pug is also sporting the 2008 front end as well, not the more sloped front the 2009 factory cars had.

Do you call a Jaguar a Tata? Probably not.
The ARX-01 is known as an HPD not a Honda, same difference.

The Bruichladdich Zytek looks better in the flesh......I had a good look round the car 2 weeks ago when I was lucky enough to have a luck round the Zytek factory and they had just finished building it.

Well, there's a fantastic set of Peter May's photos accompanying DAILY SPORTSCAR's 'series of 'First Impressions' articles from Ricard. Unfortunately, only DSC subscribers can enjoy them.

Of particular interest in DSC's first reports from Ricard is the news that, according to the team, the Rebellion V10's are in fact substantially different from the standard Judd version, but the team refused to elaborate. I'm thinking/wondering/hoping that the substantial differences might relate, in part, to direct injection.

In other news from Rebellion, DSC are reporting that the two cars will be tested by some 'very special guests' over the lunch break today. Mario Andretti and Alain Prost perhaps?

There's a Twitter update from Sam Smith from Lola cars which points exactly to that. Particularly this one: http://twitter.com/LolaRacer/status/10111932082
