Oh and maybe marginal change in tire variety prospects
LMP1 - Unless surprises all- 1) Michelin
LMP2 - 1) Michelin & 2) Dunlop & (subject to entry / programs taking off) 3) Yokohama
LMGTE-PRO - Unless surprises all- 1) Michelin
LMGTE-AM - 1) Spec-tires TBA / likely Dunlop
Speaking of, has Nissan announced if they're gonna be using borin' old Michelins like all the rest? Their G56 efforts have used Mics for sure, but in GT500 their teams also use Bridgestone and Yokohama. I think most of their GT3 series for GT-R use spec-tires so can't tell there (or bother to look into). Would be great opportunity to take rubber from some of the other Japanese makes
