I think it actually looks a lot like the Corvette DP, but maybe additional images will change my mind on that.

Fantastic lineup for the Lizards.

Testing going on today at Daytona and the Suntrust car has a new livery I think it looks great.

That's what Grand-AM management-types have been saying. I hope they don't go all turbo. I hope manufacturers like BMW, Ford, perhaps Mazda go the Turbo route while Chevy keeps the V8s. I'd like to see a diversity in exhaust note for once in DP, but from what I hear that is not a priority for Grand-AM (an even playing field is - but that is nothing new).

Are you sure? Maybe all but Daytona?

I just heard from the Portuguese commentator for motorsports on Eurosport that they will show 6 hours live (all times CET):

- January 28
22:30-midnight
00:15-01:00
01:15-03:00

- January 29
19:00-20:00
22:00-22:45

Subject to change of course, as always.

I'm sure about about the Motors TV season deal as they announced it today on their twitter page.

Daytona TV package is sold separately each year and yeah, Eurosport 2 will probably show the first 4,5 and the last 3,5 hours once again. I'm waiting for its confirmation from the headquarters.

Ah, just saw their twitter. They also say full coverage of Daytona. Funny that the rights were sold to 2 companies in Europe and neither complained.
Of course, Daytona could be a taped review.

The wording is "Grand-Am is live in its entirety in 2012, starting with Daytona."
Doesn't sound like a taped review to me.

Also here is a January preview from Motors TV and it lists Daytona as Live.

Good news as the Doran Dallara will be present with drivers Burt/Brian Frisselle and Jim Lowe for at least the North American Endurance Championship races including the Rolex 24.

Starworks Line-Ups:

#2 Riley Ford Tony Kanaan, Ryan Hunter-Reay, EJ Viso, Miguel Potolicchio, Maurizio Scala

#8 Ryan Dalziel, Enzo Potolicchio, Alex Popow, Allan McNish, Lucas Luhr

Starworks might have three cars for the balance of the season, the first two full season line-ups are:

Dalziel-Potolicchio and Luhr-Popov, though I assume that Luhr will have to be replaced when there are date-clashes with ALMS.

One new, one old, IIRC. Not sure which driver-line-up will get the new one, if I had to guess, I'd say the McNish/Luhr one...
