OFFICIAL 2012 LE MANS ENTRY LIST
This thread will be unlocked on Thursday 2nd February prior to the ACO/FIA press conference at 16:00 local time in France, 15:00 in the UK. There will be coverage on lemans.org (and hopefully Radio Le Mans?).
I will set up a thread in the main Sportscar and GT forum for OFFICIAL 2012 WEC ENTRY LIST discussion. I will unlock that thread at the same time. |

The ACO Conference can't be broadcasted for the moment. Please, excuse for this temporary delay.

4:27 The ACO conference can't be broadcasted following to Dailymotion technical issues.
Now isn't that brilliant!? |

Not the greatest of GT fields. Surprised they left off one of the AMR cars and that Lotus didn't get an entry.

Considering Rocky's incident with the GTE AM Ferrari, I would have thought they'd scale back the number of AM cars. 13 seems like a lot to me.

I'm with you on that one Robert. I think the last thing this race needs is more unpredictable driving. One would think the safety issue alone would put an end to having more AM cars than Pro. Hey, what do I know! |

LMP2 is crazy. Might be the best class at this year's race.

Dyson, as far as I'm aware have not but the engine has raced at LM before so in that respect the engine has run for 24 hours. From memory the engines either blew up in 2009 or were running with lower boost so the engine wouldn't nuke itself. That was two years ago, things have changed since then so the engine could be reliable or it may not be. Either way, I'm excited to have Dyson at LM.
