Lotus LMP2- Trouble at t'mill?
« on: June 19, 2013, 11:25:18 am »
Looks like the two Lotus LMP2 entries are in a wee spot of bother. Bailiffs turned up last night and started stripping parts off both cars. Has anyone heard anything more? Will the cars still run?

Yes, we've heard that too. Currently no idea if the lack of parts in question will prevent them from running.

Steering components and front uprights seem to be getting mentioned. I guess they might be needing them if they want to get round the first corner.

It seems that engines, gearboxes, suspension and braking systems plus electronics were seized and are being held pending a court hearing locally due later today to establish the correctness or otherwise of the claims that are being made.

All returned following a judge s ruling that they are to pkay nicely, but this has echoes of Henri
