I do not know if this theme fits into this thread but I found it important to mention.
Adrian Newey received an offer from an LMP1 team in 2014. He said:"That was very interesting in principle; to be involved in a team with the aim of winning Le Mans remains on my bucket list. But the team is based in Germany and that bit didn't appeal"
Who was that Team? Porsche?
