Though with the new aero rules, I suspect they're not as "clean" as the Bentleys were. I just have never gotten used to the whole raised nose look either, whether in open wheel or now sportscars.

The G.P.C. Ferrari seems to be retaining a lot of its Spanish GT colors, I wonder how much that will change.
Are they also going to stick with Dunlops for the race? |

What a nice batch of pics. Always exciting to see the new livery changes for the big race.
PSI's Corvette looks fabulous. Neat colour choice, reminds me a little bit of the Scorp Viper from oh so many years ago in palate, and is very different from what's been seen on Vettes before. Sad about the Pirellis, but they've clearly been having issues balancing the books (see the FIA-GT withdrawal) so it's understandable. Frankly, with his experience in the car, I think Peter is a better lead driver choice than Sharpe. BMS's Pirelli-shod car looks great too: the yellow and white roof mimics the pattern seen on the Porsche in FIA-GT. With reference to GPC's car, I'm sure it won't run in the Spanish GT livery. There are 2 GPC photos on EI: 1 is in full Spanish livery, the other almost blank. It's hard to tell whether they are the same car because the green stripe doesn't look quite the same tone, but that could just be different exposure. Certainly we already know what the car will look like from the presentation in H-K, so it's either the Spanish car being deliveried or there's an extra chassis kicking about. Not sure about tyres because there are no decals on the blank car, the Dunlops clearly being for Spanish GT. I really like the Autorlando livery too. |

About the Oreca Saleens winning GT1, let's wait and see. Never seen a saleen winning a 24 hour race before. Might be good on the short runs, but the long... no idea. |

This is a piece of news we've been hoping for.......
........the ACO have announced today that the 'Three Light System' which signifies the top three cars in each category in the ALMS will be adopted for this year's Le Mans. They are listening to us, I'm sure of it! |

The ACO's photos show RML has the 2006-spec nose on the car again.
I wonder if they're planning to run both noses to see which one works better? |
