As for Status they aren't on the reserve list anymore they are in the race. The crash was a blow but I think they will be quick and I don't see much reason why a relatively proven package couldn't last 24 hours. It's not the same as the Toyota development in that sense.

The biggest blow is in terms of seat-time and LMP familiarisation for the drivers.
They're on the list!?

That's, I guess, sort of what I meant by "real endurance racing experience". Now that you bring it up, their chassis is pretty tried and tested, but the only problem I see is just maintaining concentration. The first year out is a pretty big deal, especially in the crazy LMP2 class this year.
