Feels like Dempsey Proton have positioned themselves well. Have said they are interested and have an increased relationship with Multimatic in the last 18 months. Not sure who else or how the privateer split could be, WEC vs IMSA. |

The big losers from Audi's no show are WRT. They won't want to pay all those millions to run the car but could they feature somehow? |

Among lmp2 private teams I think only united could spend >10 mln € a car per season. Other big lmp2 like WRT and jota would need a huge main sponsor backup. That's why I never believed in private friendly lmdh fairy tale.

They could, but they either stump up or look for an opening with Lamborghini stateside. I can't see much else going for them.

I think any manufacturer can do a lot worse than get a team like WRT to run them. They probably would be easy to persuade too

Some more about the Porsche testing program. They realize the advantage they have by being on track first, but they are also, in effect, testing all the components their competitors will use with the hybrid systems, so it is difficult as well.

not a 1:1 perfect comparison since there is no timing for both but if you take that porsche onboard clip and then this toyota onboard
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKglHHGLo2k both of them take exactly 20 seconds from the moment they start breaking before la source to the moment they run over right kerb after exiting eau rouge. Porsche seems to run on rails on la source with a better traction, toyota seems a little more flat out at eau rouge |

Penske only wants to run 2 cars for Le Mans in 23.
But customer cars are still going to be available. |

But yeah, obviously a few potential customers must have had appointments. Think we could see plenty of these on the grid by '24. |

It is interesting they chose to have the real test car there (since all the secrecy) and no show car to grab public attention?

I need more angles before I can judge.
