The only P2 coupe I can recall at Le Mans is the Lotus from last year?

As far as 2014 is concerned P2s may be open or closed. P1s must be closed.

There were (are) Lola P2 coupes as well, such as the Gulf racing cars;

We'll still have open cockpit P2 cars until the end of 2016, at the moment. I rather like the look of that Oak/Ligier.

Much much better with closed cockpits. This rendering looks very pretty, hope it will look similar in the flesh.

And everybody seems to copy the Lister Storm headlights. The men in a shed from the UK most have been on to something???

The new Dome/Strakka Racing P2 car is a closed cockpit too.
