The whole work drivers pack surely will be sent to help backed teams during the season (daytona, USRC, adac gt, VLN, 24H nurburgring) but in a clash event, lmp1 program has the priority. Is not so different from audi and bmw, a lot of their factory drivers won't be able to take part to 24H of nurburgring because of DTM clash event.

Indeed, and this weekend 8 of the 10 Porsche drivers are occupied, and one is in the US, so only Holzer will be available for the VLN.
