The ADR-Delta car has spruced up its livery a bit for LM with a few splashes of orange. Can they replicate the pace they showed at Spa? Note the optimistic side lights!

Very interesting but not really a surprise.

I think that should read - "We'd very much like one car to finish the race."

Another slot filled as Niki Cadei takes the final seat at AF Corse in the AM car.

At the same time this confirms Marco Cioci's step up into the Pro car as suspected.

An updated entry list: http://www.lemans.org/wpphpFichiers/..._mans_2012.pdf

Only the 3th driver of the #8 Toyota is missing. Sarrazin is listed at Starworks, but perhaps that can still change.

Bernhard is still listed in the #3 Audi, but presumably that is not yet final either.

Good to see (nearly) all the gaps filled in.

One of the new names which I was kind of gutted about - not because I have anything against the driver - is Roger Wills in the JMW 458.

It's a shame that they've had to rent out that seat and they couldn't have got in another pro. Two-thirds of the line-up are both quick and exciting with Walker and Cocker.

I fully agree with you. Rob Bell would have been a much better choice.

The second Lotus P2 and the Pro IMSA Porsche still top the respective lists and will be at test day - probably half hoping another rival team has a shunt (without injury).

Yeah they'll be there but unfortunately it would look as if the Pro IMSA is going to suffer the same fate as the second Robertson Ford last year... waiting till the last second but no luck

That's a shame - not that I'd wish misfortune on any of the current entrants, but I have to wonder why are there so many GTE-Am entries compared to Pro?

I'm still assuming that IMSA Matmut had the choice of which car of theirs got into the race and they plumped for the AM car which was paid for. You can understand that but that doesn't mean it's good for the fans. It seems to be the only way a number of teams car go racing. Look at ProSpeed who dropped down to AM this year.

The other disappointment was the second Pro Aston. Would have been a great boost for the class to have a second works car but I think the ACO for a number of reasons (no WEC manufacturer entry/2011 debacle) wouldn't grant them the entry.

To those upset by 10-10ths own Roger Wills being in the Dunlop car?
He IS fresh from a victory in the historic F1 at Monaco. Plus he's had plenty of seat time in Ferraris in GT-E, so whilst not being right up there, Roger's no slouch, and rarely bends cars.

I would prefer to see the IMSA/Pro car than the Pescarolo P03 ..... at least we would know that it can handle itself .

I got a feeling Henri will be a bit of a laughing stock with respect to the P03 !!!

Wonder who join Starworks ..... possibily Montagny ?

He has Le Mans experiance , knows the car , and is bloody quick . What happened to him at Legune Seca was a mistake , and we all have bad days .

Love to see him in at Starworks .
