Withdrawals there my be, but there will still be a full 56 car grid in June. Interesting that the P2 class is very healthy at the 24 hours yet heavily depleted in the rest of the FIA/WEC.

Only 5 British Teams, Strakka, Jota, Greaves, RAM and Aston Martin which is a pity.
However, of the 94 drivers confirmed so far 22 are British, the biggest contingent. The next nearest is France with 18. Jolly good show chaps.
I tested negative for patience.

There are also the 2 in GTAM so 4 in total.

There are always plenty that drop out, and I don't think all on the current list will make the race either. Hopefully there is maybe a sublist that will allow a few last minute additions.
Some people will tell you that slow is good - and it may be, on some days - but I am here to tell you that fast is better.

Yeah that was more my point really. Be a shame to see empty garages before the race even kicks off.
