Possible but there are several teams hanging by a thread, so there may be a legitimate withdrawal. If the rumours come true a couple will be biggies.

Could it be somebody with a red number on it? If so I just hope that its not GTLM team(s).

Risi isn't even in that discussion...

A bigger Florida based team based somewhere between Miami and Daytona might be though.

OK, so that could be numerous teams, but money'd be on Starworks, which would be a real shame because of the dedication that Peter Baron has had. Only privateer pro team I can think of that fills that description is ESM, which would be the biggest bombshell of all bearing in mind they're sponsoring half the events on the calendar.

Bearing in mind Starworks' reliance upon Venezuelan money in recent years, and having to scale back their programme this year, that would make sense if their customers had pulled out and HPD weren't willing to put up much funding for the DP.

Isn't Alex Job also based in Florida? That would make more sense, considering how the team was treated at Sebring.

Honestly, if Risi withdrew I wouldn't blame it on IMSA. Malucelli completely devastated the team.

I don't know fully who it is, if things play out the way they might.....the point I'm trying to convey here is that the bombshell everyone thinks is going to be minor, might be massive.

Series changing massive....

Its a wait and see game right now...a few cards are on the table, a few others have yet to be dealt. Just time to see which way the madness falls.

That sounds to me very much like a Ganassi- or Pratt&Miller-sized team packing it in.

I've not heard a shred of evidence to support that.
