-One is a world championship the others a European championship.
-Both are in there first year in this new format.
-Even with expected grids this year it would be touch and go for cars to be turned away in a joint race.
-The WEC list is limited to 30 by choice and could be expanded next year.
-There were serious doubts the LMS would even run this year never mind have such a large LMP field.
Isn't it a case of giving both championships space to grow rather than stepping on each others toes. In 2013 you could realistically have 35 or more WEC cars and 35 to 40 for the LMS, the old LMS saw a similar jump in size in 2005 to 2006, Blancpain is already full and who knows whats going to happen to FIA GT1 and FIA GT3, they could combine of teams could looked elsewhere.
