Juntos-I was more referencing the GT Challenge.If your gonna say No Comments then why bother commenting on what I said at all.I hate to sound a little annoyed at the matter.The numbers bit was comparing them to the Endurance,should have said the GT Challenge.

So by my count Parente / Barnicoat / Osborne / Kondric don’t have any programmes assigned to them yet.

Surely there’s a programme unannounced...

Rob Bell interview on Auto Hebdo.

Ever so lightly suggests some participation in Blancpain, and Spa is likely.

I know the development programme has been pretty late due to the CRP legal process, so perhaps they havent yet completed putting together their programme.

Juntos is a back marker

Seeing the glass as half empty is more positive than seeing it as half full but showing up late for the official test can't be a good sign.

People seem quite eager to feed you their negativity, please remember that sometimes the diet we need to be on is a spiritual and emotional one. The grid in both series is exceptional, world class level. Comparing Blancpain series to GT Open or British GT must be a joke.

GT Open has both a larger and more diverse grid than Blancpain Sprint this year.....

It's in the Am class. And they have a couple of Am class wins last season as a trio (and P2 in last year's Am class standings).

Indeed. Glad to see the trio back for another season. They seem to work well together.
