So either he was spouting BS or there really is nowhere in Europe that you can run an LMP1 test program; who knew?
Is that quote to Ricards accurate? I can't believe he actually said that. Peugeot and Audi have been doing more testing this year than I can ever recall them doing. Not to mention, if that were indeed the truth, there any many places to test outside of Europe.
