Introducing Beechdean Mansell Motorsport

There's already mention of this new partnership on the 'Le Mans Series 2010' thread, but I think the interest this programme will garner deserves a dedicated thread..............



The details of this new venture can be found here. Needless to say, this is fantastic news for ACO regs racing in Europe (on several levels).

We know the drivers, but what of the car? It's a Ginetta-Zytek Z09R (first time I've seen the 'R' designation). Which chassis (ex Strakka perhaps)? Which engine will be used (4.0 or 4.5 litre)? Or, given the 'full factory support' status the team will enjoy, could it be a hybrid?

Exciting news, great to have Nigel Mansell involved in ACO regs racing. The very best of luck to Andrew Howard and the Mansells!
