Geva racing should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Here are my predictions for this year's le Mans 24 hours:

LMP900

#01 Audi Sport Joest
#02 Oreca Motorsport
#03 Bentley Motorsport

After a close battle between the Courage of Pescarolo, the two factory Audi's, the Fastest Oreca Protorype and the Lead Panoz the Audi and the Oreca car pull away. The battle is great and the spectators will be entertained. in a bid to catch the lead pair, the panoz team have developed some new bits and pieces, which turn the car into bits and pieces around midnight. the Pescarolo car gets a puncture and hits the armco hard. Bourdais manages to get the car back and it returns to the track around two hours later. The reliable Bentley team is there to pick up the pieces.

LMP675

#01 WR Motorsport
#02 Rowan Racing
#03 Dick Barbour Racing

After a dreadful first hour the WR finally goes places. the car is better than expected and the lead Barbour Reynard is overtaken at the porsche curves. Rowan have a steady run to second and The second Dick Barbour car gets third place after the Lead DBR car crashes into the to new MG.

LMGTS

#01 Factory Saleen
#02 Larbre Competition
#03 Belmondo Racing

The Saleens dominate race until 5 hours into race. the gearbox is the weak link and the newly found instability in the slow corners is hampering performance. Still the fastes Saleen manages to save first place by two laps.
The Belmondo viper and the Larbre Competition Viper are way faster than the corvettes but have difficulties going around them.
Finally they get through and a titanic battle between the two leading vipers begins.
The FFSA viper crashes heavily and gets the pacecar out.

Heeltoe6, got it in one.

The Audi's might have to shift into 6th during the first couple of hours. Come nightfall they will be long gone. I hold out some hope for Bentley as they seem to have the speed, they have the drivers all they need is to put it all together and pick up the pieces if Audi falter.

Dick Barbour might get a 1-2

The only question will be the GT's. So many to choose from it is down to lasting longest.
