it was to enter three cars at this year's Le Mans 24 Hours, so whilst we countdown the days until motorsport's greatest endurance spectacle we thought we'd give you a POTW to get you equally excited about Gaydon's latest Le Mans mile-muncher.
This snap shows the LMP1 Lola Aston Martin car that is currently romping through the field in the Le Mans Series. The instantly-recognisable orange and 'Gulf blue' paint makes spotting Aston's entries a doddle, but after an impressive victory in the opening round at Barcelona and a podium finish at Spa you need only look to the front of the pack to find the most exciting petrol powered car in the pack.
So, as things begin to heat up ahead of Le Mans '09, we hope you can enjoy this gorgeous car on your desktop in all of its fly-spattered glory.
