That said, apparently Seat might not suffer weight penalties because they made a three driver entry with #4 Plato, #14 Thompson and #24 Turner (you pay per number).
Not sure if that's correct, but time will tell. Will be handy.
Despite the Yokohama/Dunlop switch, I reckon Thompson's Leon prepared by Oreca will be more than handy!
