Gotta love the search tool. Time to resurrect this topic:

Formula Le Mans will be LMPC in LMS next year. Some convergence apparently between ALMS and LMS, or LMS and ACO copying the model.
And interesting bit in the article:
Quote:
“The ACO wanted to create a true ladder series for endurance, like that which exists in open wheel racing. That is a reality today: Karting, Proto-School ACO, Formula Le Mans, LMP2 and LMP1,” explained ACO vice president Pierre Fillon.
The winning team in next year’s LMPC class will receive an invitation to run in LMP2 at the 2013 Le Mans 24 Hours. The winning drivers will scoop a €45,000 prize, duns LMP1 or LMP2 drives in the 24 Hours. The first three finishers from each race will also receive prizes in the form of spare parts or Michelin tyres.
