New Zytek 07S LMP1 - Which team?

Just seen on Dailysportscar.com that Zytek have sold one of the new 07S LMP1 cars to a "very good team with good drivers and funding in place"

Any ideas who this could be and who the drivers are?

This is very, very good news. I'm absolutely delighted!!

Which team? I have my suspicions, but the announcement will be made in due course. A bit of speculation is always fun on here, but perhaps anyone who really does know could refrain from spilling the beans, please. Let's not steal the Team's thunder..........

Any word as to which series?

ALMS needs it, LMS would be nice, please not "lost" to JLMC though...

To quote Trevor Foster, ".....a very good team, with good drivers and proper funding in placeā€. 2007 will see them enter the Le Mans Series and Le Mans.

I'm beginning to think the announcement, when it comes, is likely to be something of a surprise. I've so far heard the names of Essex, Jota, RML and Embassy banded about, but none of them with any real conviction.............

Bingo!

Because of their history with Zytek I think it will be John Nielsen's Team Essex.

What about RML ?

They won LMP2 so might try their hand at LMP1 ?

How is the Zytek 07s LMP1 different from the one that raced at Petit and Laguna Seca in ALMS in 2006? I am sure that it is now a full P1, but what are the other differences?

Well if

was truly said in the article. Then to my knowledge it wont be RML, as LeMans auto qualifiers are class specific. I may be wrong but thats the way I thought it worked.
