ELMS – 36 cars entered at Silverstone

After the official tests held at the start of the week in Monza in Italy, the competitors registered in ELMS will head to Great Britain and Silverstone to compete in the first event of the season on Saturday April 15, on the sidelines of the WEC.

In the premier LM P2 category, twelve cars are listed, with three chassis manufacturers represented, Oreca, Ligier and Dallara. The Var clan will be led by the 07-Gibson n°21 DragonSpeed ​​of the trio Stone-Hanley-Hedman as well as the example entered under the G-Drive Racing banner and entrusted to Roussel – Rojas – Hirakawa. Pascal Rauturier's Graff Racing will put two Oreca 07s on track for Trouillet – Petit – Guibbert and Bradley – Allen – Matelli.

Panis-Barthez Compétition, Algarve Pro Racing, IDEC Sport Racing, United Autosports and Tockwith Motorsports will make up the contingent of Ligier JS P217s, the majority in the LM P2 peloton. Cetilar Villorba Corse and High Class Racing will enter the Dallara P217.

It is again in LM P3 that we will find the greatest number of cars registered with 17 prototypes. The field will be almost exclusively made up of Ligier JS P3s, except for the Norma M30s of M.Racing – YMR and Oregon Team. Note that the teammate of Yann Ehrlacher and Ricky Capo on the M.Racing – YMR Norma M30 remains unknown after Gwenaël Delomier’s accident in the Prologue.

Sept GTE s’affronteront en Angleterre, avec Porsche, Ferrari et Aston Martin as headliners. One driver remains to be confirmed in the category, namely Wolf Henzler's teammate in the No. 911 Proton Competition 88 RSR.
