Lotus Evora GTE at Le Mans 2011
Ycom was appointed by Lotus to design and build 2 Lotus Evora GTE.
The timing of the project was extremely tight as we started in November 2010
and we had 2 cars at the Prequalif of Le Mans on 23rd of April!!
Starting from the initial layout, every component of the car
(except for the engine) was designed, built and developed by YCOM.
Lotus GTE finished seventh in class in the classic 24 Hours
of Le Mans sports car race, completing a race that many cars
could not finish.
In a project that first turned a wheel on a race track less
than 2 and a half months ago, to reach the end of arguably
the greatest endurance race in the world was a huge
achievement.
Lotus made its return to the 24-Hour race after years away
from the event and that return was an unqualified success.
