Joke backfires on G-Drive. Dispensation for all-Pro lineup DENIED by the ELMS. (As it should be frankly, if you want to keep your category Pro-Am)

Glad to see that lunacy has been stamped out. Credit to the ACO I guess, but it begs the question of how it even got that far into the process.

But yeah, if you have a Pro-Am formula, I see no reason to go outside that. I assume they tried that because Rusinov was told there way no way he'd be dropped back to silver? Anyway, I wonder who'll step in now, and who'll miss out. |

I'd hedge my bets on Vaxiviere being dropped. I don't see Rusinov stepping aside given he was the one pushing this to keep himself in the car. |

Paul Petit indeed.
I forgot to include the link, that would have avoided all the confusion. Here it is: http://www.endurance-info.com/fr/rac...-son-equipage/ |

Seat for Oliver Pla. Mainly posing this to voice my opinion that I think he is the most OVERRATED driver in pro sportscar racing today. I'm not that impressed honestly. |

One of the fastest guys but also rather incident prone...
Curious to see him in an Oreca - does that mean he's no longer Onroak/Ligier's factory driver? |

Andrea Pizzitola to be the "true silver" rated driver at G-Drive/TDS this season. Vergne will be replaced by Imperatori on races where there is a conflict with Formula E.

DSC says that the 17 full season + 2 guest entries for HTTT make it the biggest LMP2 entry ever in LMS with 19 cars
Of course not in terms of chassis/engine as it is just the sad spec 3+1 but numerically in entries they seem to have taken the record |

That does prove making the engine spec was the correct move though, in my opinion. Especially considering the LMP1 field we're gonna have.

When you smash your boss car in the warm up lap, you can expect another end. Being fired from your job can be a major setback. But it doesn't mean the end of your career. Joel will get over it.
