Do you honestly think that the ACO would not give a place to one more Hypercar? They can easily remove an unimportant Oreca, Ferrari or Porsche GTE Am and give a place to one more Hypercar.

SMP BR1 and rebellion R13 had >700hp, were much lighter than LMH and in lemans low drag configuration were constantly >340km/h since unlike toyota they hadn't to lift and coast to save fuel. Considering LMH are wider, less powerful and would get a worse acceleration exiting from tetre rouge because of extra weight and worse downforce, I don't think will be marked better top speed than 2019-2020 private lmp1. BTW didn't Jim always say that the 007 whole package was about 2mln$ for interested team? And don't they need to build a third car anyway to use it as spare chassis? |

We believe we can get a third entry. We have a lot of fans and about 5mm social media impressions a week. More importantly the car looks and sounds good. |

I'm sure they would love another hypercar. We all would. But applications have closed so any extra car would go to the back of the reserve queue. The entry list will be published on Tuesday.

Hey Jim, regarding testing at Monza, did you guys think about removing the turn 1 right turn chicane and instead go flat out around the long right turn? Bozzy showed Audi doing that at Monza back in 2013 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKIc1BcWDlM |

Not many teams skip the first chicane. Depends how much straightline speed you want to learn about
