Spa 24 hour entry-list

The Spa 24 hour provisional entry-list online now: LINK

Interesting entry's:

Nissan 350Z
Viper Competition Coupe
BMW's (oh no, not again that discussion!)

rdjones · 6 Jul 2004, 14:54 (Ref:1028136)

I also see from that list that Mika Salo will drive the #11 G.P.C Giesse Squadra Corse Ferrari 575.

class4v · 6 Jul 2004, 15:28 (Ref:1028163)

Just read on turbotv.be that Bas Leinders will drive the Vertigo N°100.

Also it is still possible that a C5-R might compete.

PRF · 6 Jul 2004, 15:41 (Ref:1028175)

Interesting line up. Just wonder who will the third drivers in the RML entries? Anyone with any theories?

Watched the 24 hours in 1987/88/89. I should make an effort really.

The RJN entry (350Z) was expected. These are the folks that are developing this car for FIA GT (N-GT) competition. It looks as though their development is on schedule so far, which is a positive. They have campaigned a number of the European Nissan Touring car entries over the years, and its no shock to see the drivers Radermecker/Cunningham....

It's a good opportunity for them to see how their car matches up with the N-GT machinery. They had plans to run the car in the balance of the FIA GT schedule, and LM next year.. as well as selling customer cars.

From a selfish perspective, I hope the car is successful and finds its way to the ALMS.

The Ambi Pur C5-R?

At Spa, they accept Saleen...
It should be funny if a Saleen wins ! More probably, a F550 will win.

**PascaLM** · 6 Jul 2004, 17:17 (Ref:1028271)

I notice that there are still two Porsche Freisinger Yukos.
has this firm already financed the whole season ?

This is a round of the FIA GT... of course they accept the Saleen... :confused:

jhansen · 6 Jul 2004, 17:33 (Ref:1028285)

But Le Mans did not invite a Saleen. Bad form from the ACO. This should be a great race and I'm glad the Saleen at least gets a 24 hour race to compete in.

E46 · 6 Jul 2004, 17:34 (Ref:1028288)

Test day times: http://www.fiagt.com/newsitem.php?key=408

Marcel ten Caat · 6 Jul 2004, 18:26 (Ref:1028360)

Apparently the SRT Corvette C5-R will be driven by Marc Goossens and Anthony Kumpen.
Both drivers were in the paddock today, as well as teamowner Patrick Selleslagh and one of the sponsors.
If the team enters Spa they'll most likely to be joined by Yvan Lebon and Eric Cayrolle.

For now...let's just wait and see.

**FIRE** · 7 Jul 2004, 10:41 (Ref:1029016)

Are there already some pics of the RJN Motorsport Nissan?

BSchneiderFan · 7 Jul 2004, 10:50 (Ref:1029029)

Why has Force One suddenly changed its entire line-up? Sponsorship issues?

Marcel ten Caat · 8 Jul 2004, 20:35 (Ref:1030644)

The first (small) changes have been made, in this case a driver reshuffle at GPC.

11 G.P.C Giesse Squadra Corse Ferrari 575 M Maranello
Fabio Babini ITA
Philip Peter AUT
Vincent Vosse BEL
Mika Salo FIN

13 G.P.C Giesse Squadra Corse Ferrari 575 M Maranello
Emmanuele Naspetti ITA
Gianni Morbidelli ITA
Frederic Bouvy BEL
Didier Defourny BEL

Duffacus · 8 Jul 2004, 20:58 (Ref:1030664)

I think this is a better line up, and it keeps Babini and Peter together too. Added with Salo and Vosse, this is a good line up as is in the other car.

Wout · 9 Jul 2004, 07:48 (Ref:1031023)

Accoording to one of the press releases on the Spa site, BMS is going to enter a third car, under the CARE racing banner, with probably Colin McRae as one of the drivers.

The article says: they are in negotiations with a "two times winner of the race in GT" and an Italian worldchampion..

Wout · 9 Jul 2004, 13:52 (Ref:1031320)

the GT winner will probably be Bouchut?

Graham Goodwin · 9 Jul 2004, 13:55 (Ref:1031326)

Rossi!

Rickard is already racing in ETCC, but that's probably not a problem.

BSchneiderFan · 9 Jul 2004, 17:01 (Ref:1031539)

Indeed. The Mullers are doubling up for BMW, as are Priaulx and Garcia.
