Nissan LMP to return in 2016

Are we shocked or surprised? This is what should have been done at the start. I wish them luckmand that they returm with a fully working race car.

Good, but I will be a lot happier when it is reported that it is running with KERS.
Without a reliable KERS system they have no chance.

Still think that the ACO were wrong to allow them to enter 3 cars this year.

Their entry should have been Garage 56 and thereby allowed another 2-car team to race.

But we all know why they got away with it, don't we?

Agreed, garage 56 would have been a better place for this, but entering the whole WEC precluded that option.

A fully working car, including ERS and brakes, will be exceptional. In the recent COTA test they were knocking on LMP1 lap times. It's coming, but slowly
Wooosh!!!!
