No surprises in LMP1, no Hope Racing either.
I think we`re really coming to a point where LMP1 is becoming a manufacturers-only class. |

Best GTE grid ever assembled.
Weakest top category in recent memory. |

Race Performance have supported the race for the last few years but don't bring a lot of 'excitement' to the table IMO.
I can see why they were passed over but I think they'll get in. |

GT grid looks amazing but bit light on the LMP1 still this year is going to be a feast for the ears

I'm getting so tired of all those Oreca - Nissans! Couldn't they just skip 2 of them and add the Oreca - Judd from Race Performance and Lola B11/40 - Judd from DKR Engineering?

I much rather have two strong factory efforts fighting for the overall win than one factory and 10 privateers who can't even come close in terms of speed. |

In practical terms though, LMP1 is no weaker than it has been... it really is just about the factory entries, and that is just as strong as it has been. Great to see the other cars out there though. I think overall this is a very strong LM grid, love to go there.

GT-Pro in the WEC, but especially at Le Mans with two Corvettes and two Vipers, will be awesome. |

Just a case of filling those gaps with some more drivers now.

If those 5 can battle as we hope they can, it'll be fantastic. But I'll grant you, those GTs should be amazing - particularly on the first few laps....

So 5 is the magic number this year at La Sarthe - 5 factory cars in P1 and 5 manufacturers in GTE-Pro.
Bring it on!! |

Apparently a spectator will be selected to drop the tricolor at the start of the race.
