The general consensus around here is that Prodrive are and have been whiny (or I guess whinging is more appropriate) for a very long time. Speaking for myself, I'm tired of it. If they want to race here, great, if not, so be it.

No, they were going to run 1 with a HPD engine alongside the Morgan-Nissan.

8 Star originally announced that they would be buying one but with the way that team is going and the silence that's surrounded that programme since I would say that's a non-starter.

Personally, I think it's quite possible that they were actually going to be the same programme (the Oak and 8 Star ones) and it's just a change of name.

But in summary, no; 1x Ligier-HPD and 1x Morgan-Nissan for the last two rounds.

There has to be some incentive to this. Why are they wasting their time? They won't be allowed to win.

The Ligier has a significantly higher top speed than the Morgan (about 5 kph at Le Mans), which should help them to be less easily passed by the DPs.

And stop the conspiracy theories, please. People don't throw their cars off the track, just to cause a caution to prevent a P2 victory.

If Oak entries are true that Yacaman, Tung, Pla car will be a very strong entry. If they can keep out of trouble.

PR just issued from NGT saying they've had to pull out due to Señor Cisneros having to 'concentrate on business interests'.

I didn't realise that he was Venezuelan funded, but reading between the lines I guess that's the basic side of it.

Good news is they will be back for a one-off at the COTA round. Real pity as this is a team with beautiful liveries, a great character and will always be remembered as being associated with Sean Edwards.

Hope to see them back in the future.

NGT Motorsport withdrawing for the rest of the season from TUSC except for CotA. Henrique Cisneros is from Venezuela, and blames conditions there for the withdrawal.
Quote:
Sometimes you have to make difficult decisions and this is one of those times for me,” said Cisneros. “Racing is such a joy in my life, however at this current time I need to focus on business and family.

“Turmoil in my home country of Venezuela is affecting both of these and that needs to be the center of my attention right now.

Tracy Krohn hasn't caused ans many cautions as usual the past several races he has been in.

Put him in a totally different car and watch him learn to drive it in traffic and then see ...

That's great news! I think the blue and green look really nice. But they are only running this livery at Indy.
