Or one could say that these drivers are contracted to Michelotto and it is up to them where to put their drivers?

I wonder if Jetalliance will run one car like last year or do you think they will bring in Robert and someone else so they can run both cars?

And any news on whether James Watt will be bring the Porsche to Spa?

Tom.

Any news or rumors of any FIA GT3/National GT/International GT open teams thinking about taking part in this years Spa 24 hours? Would be nice to see a full grid, yes most of the entries from the championships I mentioned would be GT3 cars but International GT open also has GT2 entrants so perhaps a few of them may be thinking about entering?

The Spa 24 hours is done by a different TV company to the rest of the FIA GT Championship, and they usually only film 6 or 7 hours of it, so that's probably all we will get.

on PlanetLeMans, the #5 C6.R Pheonix has all the regulars, so is it possible to see "factory" drivers in the 2nd car, LAA being out ?

Just one car then for Jetalliance.

No sign of JWA on that list either.

hello good people. Inspired by minimangler, I have just booked my train ticket to Belgium.

However, my incompetence combined with travelling alone doesn't bode well and I'm looking for advice about travelling further once I get to Brussels. There seems to be a one change service to Spa and surely there's a bus from there but what sort of price would I be looking at for a return to Spa?

Very disappointed not to see LAA at the race, was hoping to see a 4 way semi-works Corvette battle, but looking forward to my first Ardennes 24 and especially the sound of the Gillet in the forests. Anyone got any tips for a first-timer?

It's worth pointing out that James Sutton is being brought onto the CRS squad as a reserve, as far as the press release indicates.

If you are Eurostarring to Brussels your ticket includes travel (on the same day)on to any other Belgian station. The best way is to travel to Verviers, where you can get a bus to Francorchamps, near the main entrance to the circuit. Bus times can be found here http://www.infotec.be/index.aspx?Pag...34023237830544. The bus is cheap. 5 Euros maybe?
It is possible to travel to Spa by train but the service is rather limited and you would then need to get a taxi to the circuit. This costs 20 Euros each way.
We have been to Spa by public transport several times so if you need any more advice send me a private message and I'll do my best to help!

The official reason is that Spa is too close to the Nürburgring 1000km and they are fully focussed on the LMS.

The Phoenix #5 certainly looks strong with the "regulars" and defending champions from last year. It would really be interesting to see who they get to drive the #6. Love to see the Ollies at a minimum with maybe Magnussen and O'Connell or Fellows. Probably too much to hope for though.
