Tom Kimber-Smith replaces Thor-Christian Ebbesvik at Greaves Motorsport.

Sounds like not enough sponsor money to pay the repair bills...

I can't help thinking that Kessel 458 has to be an error on the list- I can't see how they can run a 458 in Am either.... IIRC, they had a 430 at the Ricard test?

I thought Farnbacher had a 458 on order, but are running the 430 until it's delivered. Maybe we'll see the old car at the first race (they ran it at the test IIRC?), with the 458 debuting at Spa, or is it simply another error in the list?

I hadn't noticed the JMB 430 missing from the list though- wonder what's happening with that- lack of paying drivers?

Probably a mix-up on the list, Farnbacher said that their 458 should be delivered in time for Ricard.

We'll see on Thursday I guess

The list on the public Le Mans Series site says there are 36 cars entered, yet they show 35 (5 LMP1, 9 LMP2, 5 FLM, 10 GTE Pro and 6 GTE Am).

The list that was made available for the teams on March 9 had 39 entries (7 LMP1, 10 LMP2, 5 FLM, 11 GTE Pro and 6 GTE Am)

From another source I heard that there is a severe shortage of drivers with ability and budget.

Does anyone know why the LNT radical is not on the entry list? In an article on endurance-info explaining the Sebring absence Ian Dawson stated that they would be at Paul Ricard. Also they have been testing twice recently at Silverstone with Greg Mansell and again at the Ginetta media day.

should we be worried that the works Aston isn't on the ACO's list? I've probably just missed something or not added yet.

Have just had an exchange on twitter with the AMR press guy - the works car will "definately" be there, but scratch the Kronos coupe ("expected at Spa")

Yeah , its got to the stage of seeing is believeing at this stage .

As much as I admire what Ian Dawson has accomplished in his years of motorsport , and God loves a tryer , these last few years have labeled him as something of a scarlet pimpernel !!!

Lets wait and see , shall we .

About that AMR ..... Looks ok from the front , would like to see the cockpit moved further back , ala Panoz P1 ..... but I think it looks awful to be honest . Ive heard a rumour that the authorities that be , are reconsidering that abortion of vertical fin , cuz reports are that it does not work . Cant say where I heard it , just I heard it . I sincerly hope that this is true .

At the end of the day , if the car works , I'll be happy to see them whoop the diesels ..... but it will be uphill ..... still AMR were the only ones to come up with a TFSI engine to tackle the diesels , in a customer chassis which they did turn into a very quick and reliable car .

Again , lets wait and see .

I hope the fins do disappear, although removing it would not make the AMR-One look pretty.
