but they must have a car that is eligible to take part, really that means LMP2 and already plenty of them.

GG said on TWISC that a number of full season ELMS teams were not even bothering putting entries in.
Likely down to a combination of economic factors, COVID and the fact that it's unlikely there will be big crowds at the race. If things look a bit rosier in a couple of months then we might see a couple. But I doubt they will formally release any sort of reserve list now. They'll just appear on the main entry list if anyone does drop out. |

You do wonder why some ELMS teams wouldn’t even consider a Le Mans entry. Of course the current economic climate can’t help, so that’s bound to be a factor
I don’t think we will a reserve list either. If anyone does drop out, we’ll see if there is enough time for a replacement |

'Laurens Vanthoor and Earl Bamber are believed to be MacNeil’s co-drivers for the 24 Hours of Le Mans in GTE-Pro, in what will mark a reunion of #Bamthor driving duo since being split up following the conclusion of the North American-based Porsche factory GTLM program.'

Tom Gamble on the roster for GR Racing (is that Gulf Racing-Racing? I can't tell anymore) replacing Andrew Watson who goes to D'Station.
Barker and Wainright still on. |

Now that would be something worth seeing, just a shame it's only a reserve at this time

Wouldn't it just be the BR1 LMP1 car they already have being entered, like the Signatech entry?
Dragonspeed themselves just hinted they're applying (or have applied) for a reserve entry, and the photo was of the BR! LMP1 car. Still, it was very good car, so it'd be great to have it back. |

Rusinov, de Vries and Colapinto is a serious line up.

Yes i think there will be quite a few drop outs due to the current situation.

Was the reserve list officially published? are there other cars besides the Dragonspeed BR? |

I've not seen a reserve list yet - nor a list with the Dragonspeed car on it. But I may have missed it.

I’m not sure the reserve list has been published either, but would not surprise me if Dragonspeed are on it. Just have to wait and see

The Dragonspeed BR1 news began with a tweet from the team, which didn't actually confirm that they had applied for a place on the reserve list, but Ouest France followed up on the tweet saying the team had confirmed that they had submitted an application for the car to go on the reserve list.

This car was never very competitive but it would be pretty funny to see it win a race of attrition.

Good point, and I guess they would probably just use the car they have instead of changing to SMP spec. If Hedman isn't driving, who is leading the effort to put the car on the grid?

Shame about the BR1 but 4 cars so if a few drop out then we will still have a full grid, but perhaps not full grandstands

69 year old Mark Patterson in the Algarve Pro reserve. I'm going to ask if I can be the third driver - to add some youth to the line-up.....
