ah, now that's the kind of team i was expecting to see. i think the solid names from single seaters will start to give the class credibility with the kind of drivers they're aiming to attract.

A 'legendary' name returns next season!
http://sportscar365.com/lemans/elms/...tta-juno-lmp3/ 2015 will probably see another boom in entries, expect 40+ cars all season long. |

2015 ELMS season is going to be great in every class by the looks of it (so far).

Sebastien Loeb Racing has pulled out of LMP2.
http://sportscar365.com/lemans/elms/...s-out-of-lmp2/ Was this rumoured a while ago? I feel like I already knew this. |

Yeah I thought it was common knowledge now. Anyway a good purchase for Eurasia Motorsport, race winning car. Pretty excited to see Nick de Bruijn in one of these things.

Endurance-Info's first estimate for the entry list. LMP2 could realistically have 16 entries next year.

Wolf Racing (of the GB08 prototypes) announced today they have entered the ELMS with further details to come. I wonder what that's about, competition to Ginetta in LMP3?

Wasn't there talk of Wolf entering LMP2 next year by rebadging a current car?

Thanks, I should be more observant. It will be interesting to see what chassis they rebadge.

do we know if the 05 has tested yet?
as isynge has said previously, it would be verrrrrry interesting to know the backstory to how tds didn't quite manage to get the ligier working for the shorter races. |

is it just me or is that a f1-esque timeframe for a new chassis with a roof on it? the first race is the second weekend in april and the elms pre-season tests are late march... they must be very confident that it works.

So how many cars should we reasonably expect this year? Around 40?
