144.2Ligier to become PGPLEMAN::CHEVAUXPatrick Chevaux @GEO, DTN 821-4150Sun Jan 26 1997 15:554
    It appears that the deal by which Alain Prost will incorporate Ligier
    in his brand new PGP (Prost Grand Prix) team is now completed. The new
    team will debut in 1998. I suppose the official FIA manufacturer will
    remain Ligier.

    Prost cannot get clearance to change the team's name, the road block
    being one Eddie Jordan. This is almost certainly due to Prost's plans
    to go racing with Peugeot next year.
    
    Methinks that building a new team along national lines is doomed to
    failure.

    I know but that is a minor problem. Prost can race as PGP with Ligier
    cars. That's what Larrousse did with Lola.
