On Thursday, July 13 on the Goodwood Competition of Pace, Lamborghini is scheduled to unveil its LMDh-class prototype for the 24 Hours of Le Mans and past. Nonetheless, you’ll discover right this moment is Wednesday, July 12, and but there are full photos of a race automotive on this very web page that appear to look quite a bit just like the one Sant’Agata is anticipated to introduce this week. What offers?

Your guess is pretty much as good as ours, however in any occasion the automotive appears to have leaked and is making the rounds throughout social media. Right here’s a small assortment of photographs courtesy of Luca Basso through Twitter:

And right here’s Lamborghini Squadra Corse’s newest teaser, for cross-referencing functions. Appears fairly convincing, no? All that’s left to find is the title.

Aesthetics actually aren’t all that essential to precise success in motorsport, however for what it’s price and by the powers vested in me by this very web site, I formally deem Lamborghini’s LMDh a Good Race Automotive. Though the LMDh class necessitates the usage of spec parts — and that features the chassis — Porsche, Cadillac, BMW and Acura’s efforts all look completely different sufficient, and Lamborghini’s definitely wouldn’t be confused for anybody else’s.

The graphic of the bisecting vertical and horizontal LED operating lights are harking back to Cadillac’s V-Sequence.R particularly, however Lamborghini has a precedent of giving its street vehicles an identical remedy, so every little thing tracks. Out again, it’s the identical story; hallmarks of the Revuelto are throughout this factor. Shades of Lambo’s Imaginative and prescient GT present automotive bubble below the floor, too — the place I reckon they ought to keep. Fortunately, the Italian marque’s design workforce has no alternative however to rein it in when tasked with creating an precise race automotive.

Another thought: Whereas it’s too early to imagine how the precise competitors livery for this factor will look within the World Endurance Championship or IMSA, it’s already separated itself from the pack by being largely inexperienced. That’s good; we want extra inexperienced race vehicles.

We’ve reached out to Lamborghini for affirmation, although with the reveal scheduled for tomorrow at 4:30 a.m. Japanese time, it’s unwise to count on any. Ideas? You realize the place to go away ’em.
