The entry list for the 24 Hours of Daytona finalized

47 cars will take the start on January 26 24 Hours of Daytona (Florida), first event of the 2019 championship season IMSA. A peloton made up of 11 DPi, 4 LM P2s, 9 GTLMs and 23 GTDs, the latter meeting GT3 regulations.

If in DPi, the lines of the entered teams (Pagenaud at Acura Team Penske, Vautier at JDC-Miller, the duo Duval-Dumas at CORE Autosport, Alonso at Wayne Taylor Racing…) have not changed since the official announcements and the Roar before the Rolex 24, a full-scale rehearsal organized at the beginning of January on the Florida track, some changes should be noted in LM P2.

The Frenchman Enzo Guibbert will ride on the Oreca 07 n°52 – PR1-Mathiasen alongside his compatriot Gabriel Aubry and the Americans Matt McMurry and Mark Kvamme.

Pas de modifications en GTLM, où Porsche (avec notamment Patrick Pilet, Frédéric Makowiecki, Mathieu Jaminet), Ford (avec Sébastien Bourdais), Ferrari, Corvette and BMW will compete. The GTD category saw several crew confirmations for this double round of the clock.

First of all, the defending champions Grasser Racing Team will put their trust in almost the entire winning crew in 2018 with Mirko Bortolotti, Rolf Ineichen and Rik Breukers, this time supported by Christian Engelhart, who replaces Frenchman Franck Perera.
