Crazy thing is that LMP1 I think will just be 7 cars. GTE Pro just 11 by my tracking. LMP2 and GTE Am will be over 20 cars each potentially. The winners of those classes this year should really be recognized they will have earned it. The down side is that even though it will be large it won't be diverse. LMP2 is Orecas with a couple exceptions now. Can't see GTE Am being anything more than Porsche, Ferrari, or Aston Martin. If you can file a Le Mans entry for GTE Am with a car other than one of those 3 I bet 100% you'll get invited!

Seems tailor-made for a Ford GT entry, but Keating went with Porsche. Is there anyone else?

BMW is the only other car available, if the Corvettes are eligible for AM class yet. I guess the old one would be?

Would be nice to see them return but unsure how competitive they would be and suspect not many around for sale.

I was thinking in terms of entrants with regards to the Ford, which Multimatic has expressed interest in supplying/supporting. (I imagine an eye popping cost)

I had thought of BMW and Corvette. In the recent past only Corvette in the past has let a car out.

Only the Porsche, Ferrari and Aston (?) seem feasible for independents to run.

Yeah, a bit more variety would be welcome, but there's still 4 manufacturers in GTE-PRO and all LMP2 chassis represented.

Well lets see what happens but the grid is not exactly exciting so far and the ACO should try to add some different cars if they are available and want to enter.

Will Rick Ware really run that Riley? There previous generation Asian LMS Am Ligier would probably be quicker.

I mean, I hope they do. But it is slow.

GTE Am is going to be quiet with all those Ferraris. Kinda looking forward to GT3 taking over.

I was thinking the same thing, and that car is the only surprise on the list to me! They planned on running it at Daytona but crashed during the Roar and couldn't source the needed parts. I guess they have had time to come up with the money to find them

All in all though I don't think the chassis is going to hurt their result that much, they weren't going to be fighting for the podium in all likelyhood.
