Le Mans – The final countdown is on

168 pilots from 29 different countries will make up the 56 crews who will face each other during the 24 Hours of Le Mans (June 13-14), third round of the World ChampionshipEndurance 2015. Pilots holding French licenses will be the most represented with 30 entered ahead of the British (28) and the Americans (18).

At Toyota, Kazuki Nakajima, injured back at Spa in Belgium, still remains uncertain. Nissan, which recently announced line changes, will start his three GT-R LM Nismo, while Team ByKolles yesterday indicated the presence of the Portuguese Tiago monteiro, Honda driver in the WTCC, on the CLM P1/01 alongside Simon Trummer and Pierre Kaffer.

In GTE Am, Team AAI, which had already noted the presence of the Dutchman Xavier Maassen and the Taiwanese drivers Jun San Chen and Han-San Chen, completed its crews with the arrival of the Briton Alex Kapadia, but above all French artists Gilles Vannelet and Mike Parisy.
