Bahrain is more bearable as long as it is not the final round, like this year.

Sounds great, however when John says something like that at this stage of the year you can automatically drop at least 50% of said figure and go from there with actual expectations

But I'd say Dome is the only one we can drop out with all of their P2 troubles.

Anyway didn't catch it on his twitter, where he said it?

Domes "troubles" are rumored to be an excuse to delay their car to make further performance enhancements before offering it for purchase. Not my rumor

Perrin keeps getting mentioned. But from what I can see they don't have any money. It's just a fishing expedition until someone backs them.

He doesn't refer to Android app alone, + Appstore + website. Still seems a bit sketchy.

Its another option for a team. Imo the car looks pretty basic, but maybe theres development potential.

Gerard has great reasonings...

“Thanks to the technical regulations, but also the sporting side of it, the FIA WEC has become the best World Championship. For proof, you only have to look at the number of lead changes since Silverstone."

Most of the quotes/statements sound a little 'Nascar-ish' if you ask me. Could be the translation of course (yeah, right!).

Here's some more salt rubbing:

We are already planning for 2015 in both championships (FIA WEC and European Le Mans Series) and are currently negotiating contracts with circuits.
A) It's midway september, it should have been done by now, and
B) So it's a competition now among WEC-F1-WRC-WTCC? Most be an internal FIA thing.

And with all these 'rumored guaranteed' P1 entries for next year they sure do an impressive PR job...

Endurance-info is also saying a possible 4 additional lmp1's next year. Saying its not unrealistic to see 15 lmp1 next year.

So the four "hopeful appearances" are

Second Kodewa (as indÃ*cated elsewhere)
SARD (yup)
Oak (... I think that's more EI guessing/hoping)
"Fourth manufacturer" which is not Perrinn (???)

Hopefully GTE-AM gets the boot indeed in terms of entry numbeirs if the grid starts boosting of prototypes.

Anyway, I gave my sort of optimistic grid guess for P1 at LM next year before I heard of these, and that was already up to 15 We'll see

SARD x 1
Rebellion x 2
Lotus x 2
Porsche x 2
Nissan x 2
Toyota x 2
Audi x 3 =14.

You only need one 'new' car we dont know of Its not a stretch at all.

I'd say it's pretty clear Audi won't be the only one fielding third car at LM.

And as for full season lineup, those third cars go away so it's 8 works cars and 3-X privateers, ie minimum of 11 but probably up from that by few. Also the SARD entry, if it materializes, is likely partial season only as they've suggested

Normally I'm more pessimistic over these things, but since we already have 11 cars at the very least confirmed for next year's non-LM events, it's not that big of a strecth really.
