Full list released by the end of the week....
Great start, I love the AM orientated format too, 50% of the field in Ferraris, but there is still a nice mix of cars elsewhere, Mercedes, Mclaren, Porsche, Nissan, Audi.
Only really lacking a BMW, Lambo, Lexus, etc
The one thing I think is a shame, but probably too hard to manage logistically, is it would have been nice to have nations running with cars/teams from their own nation, if there was a suitable GT3 manufacturer/team available.
UK would have been able to pick from an Aston, Bentley or Mclaren... Germany are running a Ferrari, when they have Mercedes, Audi, BMW, Porsche to chose from.
I get it, logistical nightmare, and not really the point of the competition, but seems odd Team Germany are running a Ferrari, and Team Japan arent running a Honda, Lexus or Nissan....
