A lot of interesting details! Among others a possible hybrid system in the Pescarolo 03. |

very interesting about the possibility of a Hyrid but there was also a comment about where swome of his funding is coming from
"Of course, and this is already happening. This was part of the contract that I had with the General Council of Sarthe at the launch of Team Pescarolo for which I was supported financially." |

There seems to be no bottom in his hat - and when it finally seems to be, someone else pulls something out for him (and not meant to be misunderstood! - i mean you Badger!)

Since that's a Judd V8 in the back, it's probably safe to assume that this is the AMR-One tub already painted up in Pescarolo colours... (EDIT: On second thought, maybe not?) (EDIT: On third thought, definitely not, wrong rollhoops) |

Pesca do with Dome Spa and Le Mans, right? I do not speak french. So I put it together, somehow. :-) |

"we will return to the basic colors of the team"
Im hoping for something like this - I think its a beautiful livery http://sportscargeek.files.wordpress...agys_62138.jpg also H.P. said that the 03 will be be different from the pesca 01 and the amr one, it will be a brand new design. Cant wait to see it. The new p1 hpd looked so weird, so this new lmp1 car better look bloody awesome |

Lots more Dome piccys here on EI after delivery from Japan I guess, 3 pages worth, looke like Bourdais and Minassian on christmas day unwrapping presents, will be great to see the DOme run again, but looks like there is plenty of work to be done building the car up and adapting to the shorter Judd V8 engine, but I'm sure this is all on CAD screens at the moment, dare I say in manufacture......

I have read in a couple of places that they have a dispensation to run the old Pesca one last time, at Sebring, with the V10. All teams said yes, which is kind of nice...
After that, it's the new car with the Judd V8. |

Interesting to see a AMR-One fender at the Pescarolo workshop. |

Just a curiosity the Dome S102 in 2008 ad a 358 km/h top speed, by far one of the highest in recent year´s. With the introduction of a V8 instead of the V10 from 2008, the new S102.5 could match that speed???
Changes in aerodynamics, help them to be the fastest car and get the pole position??? |

I'd be surprised if the Dome is not the fastest car through the speed traps. I'd be equally surprised though if this car kept up with the manufacturers. I don't think it will be as quick as the R18 through the Porsche Curves - high speed corners almost become straight lines for cars as aerodynamically sophisticated as the R18. In terms of pole positions - a pole position in 'best of the rest' wouldn't be beyond this car, I wouldn't have thought. |

A '96 and '97 actually just sprung to my mind .
A lot of things are the same: -An old modified, but always very capable chassis. -An experianced team running it. -Up against a "parent" manufacture (Toyota->Dome, and Porsche->Twr)(Manufacture vs. contractor) -Quick drivers. But unlike '96 '97, there isn't any real advantages for the Dome over the Toyota and Audi, so the chance of victory is <10%. So it's only a funny thought |

However if a particular set-up is used (lowest aero possible, most fuel iniection possible etc...) is pretty easy to reach 335-340km/h i guess, even if this means to run 10 seconds off the pace in the laptime. |

I wonder if they will use the same livery on the grandfathered car at Sebring as they will on the 03 the rest of the WEC? Also, I'm guessing the Dome will stay white on the request of Dome. |

And I agree with knighty, Bourdais and Minassian seemed to look really excited when seeing the Dome chassis for the first time. |
