Two Vipers I imagine is almost a certainty.
Three Dysons is unlikely, two is probable, and obviously the sixteen will be there. But there are rumors that Dyson will run their second B12/60 post-Le Mans with Abdul Al Faisal paying for it. As for Marsal and Lux, they are scheduled only for the sprint races, though I would anticipate Lux and Marsal would want to do Petit and there would be pressure to add to the P1 grid for a ten hour race. I think it is more likely Eric Lux would get the third seat in the (second of two) B12/60 with whoever is brought in to run with Al Faisal should that car materialize.
The only far-fetched or "smoke and mirrors" are the GT3-type cars which we have no reason to believe will have a place to play.
