E-I seems to think different about the Alphand team.

With the current number of GT1 teams rumour it will probably a half-points race, making it impossible to get ahead of Oreca, even with a win and a no-show for Oreca. So they might as well stay home and spend the money next year.

Rumor? Where in the rules does it state varying points other than for race duration? As to this being a rumor, would not the ACO/LMS want to keep this as a full points race to encourage teams to participate. Heck they already extended an invitation to the other "LM" series seems like they would be shooting themselves in the foot to not make it a full points race!

L.P.

Maybe they wouldn't announce that up front. Such as, if the turnout is poor then the points get cut.

From what I understand, in 2004 the LMES gave half-points for the GTS class at the 1000km Silverstone because only 5 GTS class cars started the race (4 finished).

Just to clarify..........

The Le Mans Series regs state that if less than 6 cars in a particular class are entered to take part in practice for a round of the Series, half points will be awarded.

Thanks Bentley, and indeed at this point in time it looks as if many classes will be half points. GT1 for sure with only 7 regulars and 2 certainly not going (Luc Alphand'd C5R and Modena). I can foresee no additions to that list coming from the ALMS either....

Hmmm, 6 and less, or just less than 6? Because six cars did practive at Silverstone, but the A-Level 911 Turbo did not make the start due to a blown engine.

Yes, you're quite right........

I only have the French version of the 2007 regs to go on. There is perhaps a degree of ambiguity as to what is inferred by "aux essais", but I take it to mean 'Free Practice'.

This is what it says: Néanmoins, si, dans une même catégorie, moins de 6 voitures sont admises Ã* prendre part aux essais, les points seront alors attribués de la façon suivante: (There is then a chart showing the points awarded under these circumstances.)

Free Practice = Essais Libres
Qualifying = Qualifications
Race = Course

There are also a couple of local GT1 cars - the Diniz family were in an Aston at the last event if I recall.

Mr. Diniz passed away over the winter I believe. The car is back at Aston for sale.

They don't want to participate in a race that is 1.6 times longer for 2 times less points

Oreca and Larbre are not going either.
