Hi,
The spectral type recently added for this star in SIMBAD is not right. I'm co-author of
2011MNRAS.416..501R
. The spectral classification was improved by Sota et al. 2014, ApJS, 211, 10 (2014ApJS..211...10S), and it should be annotated as:
O2 If* / WN5
This is a very rare spectral type in the Milky Way, and thus the star is very special.
Many thanks!
Rodolfo
