Big question is where these things are headed. We'll probably see at least 1 or 2 in the WEC sometime, but I wonder if anyone is available to run them in the ALMS.

Wow, this is good news. If this works out, it will keep the Ford GT deal on its feet. It was about to crumple, but if this team decides to really try hard and get top-of-the-line drivers, I would definitely be impressed and excited. Another one to add the speculation list? Hell yeah!

Possible drivers (guesses)...

The team will only do well if they are well funded to continue development and 2 of those 3 drivers are contracted to Marc VDS, so they certainly wont be in the car

So have there been any rumours about anyone running the new GTE's anywhere this year. GTE only runs in WEC, ALMS or ELMS right?

Wont look so great a commercial plan if they make 6 and nobody buys one, do Lambda intend on running any themselves??
