I would think that it's a new lmp3 considering it became onroak core business during last years, but the coupé section doesn't look wide enough to be a lmp3 car. To reveal a next gen lmp2 now doesn't make much sense to me considering there are still 2 years to go to get final homologation for 2024 debut.
Is it possible for chassis manufacturers to introduce a new current spec lmp2 to race in 2022 and 2023 and to replace the poor and slow js p217?
You're right, it isn't a Riley anymore, that name is just stuck in my head!

I agree on weird timing if it is a next gen P2, but not sure they would be allowed to offer an upgrade to the current car, and since nobody runs it not sure what the point would be?
