However, I don't think that Treluyer and Lotterer will give up their Japanese factory driver for some racing in a GT3 car. Lotterer turned down the offer from Toyota to spearhead their LMP1 program and he is giving up Super GT as well as Formula Nippon (which he won in 2011). Treluyer has officially given up his Super GT seat with NISMO.

I also doubt that Bernhard wants anything less than a WEC seat. If he like GT racing, he can just stick with Porsche.
