New Aston Martin LMP1

[Great Dane]

Hello

Apart from the press conference at Silverstone, has anyone heard (or seen) anything about this project. Is there a launch date?

Anything post September news you'll see on here I reckon:

Jota won't be racing it until 2012, but the factory team are running in LMP1 in 2011

I actually think AMR need a kick in the proverbials, because the lack of information for fans is disappointingly sparse. Peugeot and Audi have got cars out there, but there's barely a squeek from them about the new AMR. Missing a trick IMHO...

well I agree a couple of pictures would be good to start with

Autosport print ed. say Aston LMP1 will have 2lt twin turbo V6
will be @ Sebring test

The engine is of less interest at this stage as to the look of the thing.
