It is strange that people focus on the reliability issue so much with Creation. Creation finished Le Mans last year (after a shunt that put them well down the order (losing 90 minutes)) while the Jota Zytek did not (N/C: greabox) and the Zytek in the previous year did not finish (engine, i think) before the half-way mark.

Creation finished four out of five of last year's LMS rounds--mostly on the podium apart from Monza (where the had a burst water hose in the final 30 minutes when they were in secod place).

Creation are racers. They want to win. And being at the front against the best in the world will always put much more strain on the car than driving at a pace where you end up on the podum but 7 laps down. They will get their reliabilty with the new car (as they did with the old one) and I beleive that they will be the ones to take it to the Audis at LM. After all, they had the pace of the Pescarolo (a well sorted car) in their first race outing. There will be more to come.

Thank goodness they are around (hopefully with two cars). They deserve a second entry for LM.
