Well, four GTE-Pro would actually have been an improvement over last year. The ELMS field at Paul Ricard in 2012 (and it was all down hill from there):
3 GTE-Pro: JMB Racing, JWM Motorsport, and Kessel Racing each with a Ferrari 458 Italia
5 GTE-Am: Prospeed Competition (Porsche 997), IMSA Performance Matmut (Porsche 997), JMB Racing (Ferrari 458), Gulf Racing (Aston Martin Vantage), AF Course (Ferrari 458)
So, if there are 8 GTE-Am prospects for 2013, the total GTE field size would be the same as compared to the beginning of 2012.
