Dear Phil, this not a quiz, it is history.
Jo Bonnier was in 1972 the importer of the Lola racecars, so he was the first owner of several Lola T290.
The Gitanes car was run under the label of Ecurie Filipinetti, according the the Autoport magazine July,13th 1972 the car was entrusted to Vic Elford it was Bonnier's own car for the Vila Real race. The car was sponsered by Gitanes and had the chassis number HU-02 (please check the original article)

The second source is the book of Javier del Arco (Montjuich, 40 years of motorsport at the park circuit). The race at Barcelona HU-02 was driven by Guy Edwards for Ecurie Filipinetti, the car was again in Gitane livery on the pictures.
The third source is the database of Jean Bernard Heros, showing Hu-02 04.06.1972 in Dijon by Jo Bonnier for Ecurie Filipinetti, picture is on the
www.racecar-collection.com website.
The fourth source is the database of Tomas Karlsson who has different sources showing HU-02 driven by Jo Bonnier in Gitanes livery at Paul Ricard April 9th , Vallelunga April 23rd, Salzburgring May 21th and Dijon June 4th (there are various pictures available)
So there was only 1 Gitanes car which is HU-02 and the pictures on the
www.racecar-collection.com, show the Gitanes car of course in different races not 3 cars. So share your documentation of your car with us, or change the livery of your car, please.
