With Rebellion racing's Lola...teaming with Jani and Prost. It's been TEN years since Mario wrecked that monster Panoz!?:eek:

I'd rather remember Mario's tremendous drive to 2nd place during the long rainy night in a Courage-Porsche after stuffing it during the first shift. It would have been nice for him to win LeMans. He'd won just about **** all else worth winning.

As for Marco, I wonder if this isn't just an American LeMons Series entry with two gomers named Johnny and Allen. Or might Gramps be arranging a small effort to redeem Micro's career and actually get him moving up the learning curve again instead of going down it in the IRL?

Interesting stuff about Rebellion Racing and their Lolas...


For the coming season, Rebellion Racing will campaign two Lola LMP1 coupes, and will not be present in LMP2.

The Lola LMP1 Coupes of Rebellion Racing will be powered by V10 Rebellion engines. Thus, two Lola-Rebellions will be on the tracks next season. The Rebellion V10 is a technological partnership between Rebellion Timepieces and Judd Engine Developments Limited. Using the latest technology in terms of materials, components and manufacturing has a synergy for Rebellion Timepieces to associate the brand with a race engine. The technology, performance and reliability values are shared between an exceptional watch and a prototype of the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Wow, a sponsor that wants the glam of racing technology associated with its products. Isn't it supposed to be all about the popularity of the drivers? ;)

Every sports car post cries out for a pretty picture.

teaming with Jani and Prost.

Maybe Marco and Nicolas can sit down and compare and contrast their fathers' Formula One careers.

At least in Europe Marco has a chance to escape his father's reputation.

It's not exactly a Daytona Prototype, is it?:) And yes, my inclination was Grampa had a hand in this for the reason mentioned above. Nuthin' wrong with that.
