1. Bert Longin
2. Stephane Ortelli
3. Anthony Kumpens
4. Karl Wendlinger
5. Mike Hezemans
6. Darryl O'Young
7. Jean-Karl Vernay (if he doesn't go to Jota)
8. Peter Kox
9. Patrick Huisman
10. Anthony Beltoise
A lot of ifs in that question. Namely if SRT go, and if they bring two cars. I won't go into the list apart from one guy - Vernay - who is confirmed in the IMSA Matmut Am Porsche. He's a Porsche factory pilot.

Yeah. There won't be two Vipers. It is either one or zero. No one needs to replace Hunter-Reay.

No way, dude. Do you really think Tommy Kendall and Marc Goossens are going to pass up on a ride at Le Mans? If if they go, what happens to Dominik Farnbacher? Kuno Wittmer... well, he's exchangeable this year, in my opinion. I can almost see them going to 3 cars... #91, #92, and #93.

#91 Farnbacher / Wittmer / Bomarito
#92 Wendlinger / Hezemans / Villeneuve
#93 Goossens / Kendall / Longin

With the way Kendall's been crashing, Villeneuve's antics will look like nothing! I can almost see Franky Cheng (or Congfu in Chinese!) doing a Viper effort. Again, all speculation. But I am 99% sure that the Vipers will come with 2 or none at all. And I'm 99% sure they'll come with 2.

Loeb Racing confirms they have lodged an entry.

I'd say they are as close to a nailed on entry as you can get. Not sure yet whether Seb will drive. I really hope he does, even if he knows it can't give him the overall win.

He's only doing the Monte, Sweden, Argentina and France. There is a clash between Le Mans and Rally Italy, but since Seb is not running in it, he's free to compete at Le Mans if he wishes.

It's not the Dutch flag, it's Luxembourg.

The two Lotus (Kodewa) T128 LMP2 cars will be there.

Only confirmed drivers so far are Holzer and Weeda.

We can also confirm the two Gulf Middle East Lola's if we hadn't already.

Boutsen Ginion have confirmed that they lodged an entry too:

We found out quite a lot today. Hopefully more pieces will fall into place tomorrow.

Nice, nice, and nice. A bit of a shame to see JRM out of the WEC full-time, though...

RAM confirm their entry which is no surprise.

JMB also have one entry logged for the great race.

Should be news from Felbermayr-Proton today too on E-I. Hopefully involving a WEC entry.

On a side note. Endurance-Info are really doing some great stuff right now.

Couple more rumours from the last week: Hindy reported on MWM that we might see the Vipers heading to Le Mans after all, and Endurance-Info reports that we might indeed have four GTE Vantages at Le Mans this year (three works cars, two in Pro and one in Am, and the TRG car in Am) for the celebration of the company's 100th anniversary this year.

Really hope the Vipers come. That would be amazing.

ESM has gone quiet seemingly. Anyone know if they actually logged their entry?

More like a 0% chance of McLaren being at Le Mans this year. Driver lineup for the likely 2 cars next year would feature factory and Hexis drivers.

As far as the Z4 GTE, IMSA has said they won't nationally homologate race cars so this IS a ACO homologation like the Viper.

A bit of a random entry here but no way are these guys getting turned down!

Dempsey/Del Piero Racing enter Le Mans with a likely P2 car. Dempsey, Joe Foster and Michael Avenatti on driving duties.

Another one bites the dust. It seems as those AF Waltrip won't be competing in the WEC or Le Mans this year.

http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/105201

After a couple more new updates I will update the entry list document.

Do we even know how many teams/cars lodged an entry? If I remember correctly, some ELMS and AsLMS P2 teams also want to do Le Mans. And it wouldn't surprise me if Flying Lizards want to race in GTE-Am.
