Love the post, great work.

I feel pretty mean querying this, but I think the Kolles crew have 4 starts?
Dillman's been with Kolles 3 times previously, and I think Vautier was in LMP2 last year.
I'm sure Kolles is still the least experienced Hypercar crew though.

I told you there were errors. You're right, 4 starts in total for the #4.

German drivers 3rd on overall win list after GB and France and almost 3 x as many wins as GB in last 25 years and 2 x France and Denmark. Less success in last few years. But agree very few this year despite Porsche and Proton teams.

Mercedes especially and currently Audi plus BMW have loads of GT cars in other series plus all the Porsche one make stuff.

It’s wonderful. Thanks.

Hypercar
16 entries! This is the biggest top class since 2015, which featured 14 cars. Three 2015 entrants are represented in 2023: Toyota, Porsche and, amazingly, ByKolles/Vanwall.

I’ve had to change my analysis to include this many!
