Chassis:
Completed in 1985, this was the last LC2 built for the factory Lancia Martini Racing team. It was pressed into service late in the year and was immediately driven to third at Brands Hatch by Bob Wollek, Andrea de Cesaris and Mauro Baldi. Its next outing was at the Monza 360 km early in 1986 with De Cesaris and Alessandro Nannini behind the wheel. They qualified the car on pole and ultimately finished 2nd. The two Italians also started from pole at Silverstone a fortnight later but fuel pump issues brought an early end to the race. This LC2 was not raced again in contemporary events. Sold to Le Mans winner Vern Schuppan, chassis 0007 was then sold to a Japanese collector. It was later acquired by American Richard Bryan, who raced it in historic events during the early 2000s alongside his brother Benton in a sister car. In more recent years, it has joined the formidable stable of a French historic racer, who has brought it back out for several editions of the Dix Mille Tours.
