Was it with Dragon Racing in Indycar? Yeah, a sportscar team will serve De Ferran well too. Loved their 2008 livery. Pagenaud was a revelation then.

The Potolicchio dude who is Starworks is splitting from Baron .

he wants to continue with a 2 car HPD team in the WEC , Baron wants to continue with his single entry .

Possibily see 5 AXR-03b at Sebring then .

I also reckon we will see at least a couple of Aston Martins there , as the latest news is that AMR are interested in running up to as many as 4 cars next year , 2 Pro and 2 Am .

Simmi · 25 Oct 2012, 11:53 (Ref:3157420)

With these new announcements Badger you are forgetting that they aren't ALMS-centric. Sebring isn't in the WEC, so maybe a few might make the trip - but you can't call them 'likely' entries.

It is the other way around: Potolicchio with 1 HPD in WEC and Baron with possible 2 HPDs in WEC.

Like Simmi points out, you are assuming that the American WEC teams will go to Sebring, even though it is not on the WEC calendar.

There's 2 GT cars on the confirmed list that won't be there. But the team(s) will be...

Do tell.

FstrthnU · 25 Oct 2012, 17:22 (Ref:3157576)

I'm guessing flying lizard Motorsport and falken will get first dibs on the 991rsr?

Simmi · 25 Oct 2012, 18:26 (Ref:3157617)

ESM looking elsewhere for machinery? Hasn't that been rumoured before...

FstrthnU · 25 Oct 2012, 18:41 (Ref:3157624)

Ed brown said we'd see the black and green livery back for Sebring, so they're definitely coming with something. I personally doubt they'd switch from a car they just won plm with

That was the plan with Young Driver possibly running the 2 AM cars under the AMR banner however with Fernandez leaving they need to find some more funding for Pro cars.

We asked Falken last week and they said they would not get a 991 next year, for whatever that's worth.

J.C. · 25 Oct 2012, 20:17 (Ref:3157662)

I want BMW and RLL to return to Sebring. Hopfully they have something ready

Would not read too much into this. It's been much speculated that there will be a 991 in WEC only next year with customers in '14.

Dagys talks about it below at 6:32.

The Badger · 25 Oct 2012, 21:34 (Ref:3157698)

Manthey will run one in the WEC ..... nobody else as far as I have been told until 2014 .

But I would not be surprised to see them at Sebring with it .

gwyllion · 25 Oct 2012, 21:41 (Ref:3157706)

Sebring is probably much too early. The production 991 GT3 or GT3 RS have not yet been presented.

KingKenny04 · 26 Oct 2012, 02:27 (Ref:3157795)

Why is Flying Lizard not on the list? Did something happen to them? I'm not seeing anything about it anywhere else.

Salamus · 26 Oct 2012, 04:06 (Ref:3157813)

You can add the Paul Miller Porsche to confirmed list.

gwyllion · 26 Oct 2012, 07:36 (Ref:3157845)

Potolicchio has confirmed to DSC that he will debut his new team with the HPD LMP2 at Sebring.

EDIT: Other rumored entries according to Graham Goodwin are Rebellion and JRM.

That shouldn't be a problem to be honest. They can get a waiver for that. If that's not allowed they can claim it's based on the Carrera S or Turbo version.
