Sad decision, great character, but I do love his video. I feel like it's the Frenchist thing I've ever seen. Take a drink every time he goes for a gallic shrug!

I appreciate he's Monegasque, but...Last edited by the sniper; 16th March 2021 at 20:19.

When was the last time Prodrive conducted a really successful motorsport programme?
- BRX: not so far...
- GCK WRX: nope, it got taken off them...
Mini WRC: nope. DR was made to leave it...
FPV in Australia: they burned through a lot of Ford's money and patience...
Quite right that Elena points back to Petter in 2003. That's a long time ago....

They succeeded with Aston Martin in WEC and Le Mans.

Yes and no; they've been successful in the GTE classes, however the dreadful AMR-One LMP1 was a disaster....... Originally Posted by Tom K

Doesn't come as a massive surprise, Elena hasn't seemed very motivated the last years

It’s probably a weight saving tactic.

If there is no other option, they will drive slower cars. And I think that both of them will not retire unless they will have to or there will be no other option or when they will not be competitive...
