Original description:

Founded in 1958 by Eric Broadley, Lola has been at the forefront of motorracing throughout its history. Lola products have won in almost any form of road racing, but this is often forgotten because the chassis often get rebadged to who ever commissioned the racer. One of the most recent examples was the MG EX257, which was known internally at as the Lola B01/60. Like many of the manufacturer's sportscar designs it proved very quick, but fragile. At the end of the 2005 season, the complete range of Lola prototype racers would be obsolete because of extensive rule changes. Courage was the first to launch an LMP2 car at the start of the 2004 season. Lola followed suit in 2005 with the B05/40, designed to accept a number of engine variants.

Throughout the B05/40's design process Lola have not only concentrated on getting the optimum performance, but also kept a close eye restricting the production and running costs. Soon after the new car's launch, Lola had already secured six orders for the B05/40. Featured are two AER engined Lolas B05/41, which lined up together for the 2006 Le Mans 24 Hours.
