F1 has 21 rounds, the WRC 13, I think the WEC will end up with around 8.
A typical LMS grid consists of amateurs racing for fun, upto factory teams and drivers, keeping costs under control is a major factor.
By it's very nature the WEC will be contested by manufactuer's and major privateers, if a business case can be made for a race in India, backed by a media and travel package, they'll want to compete.
Amateurs who compete in a full season will tend to be the likes of Krohn, Tucker, Goh, Van Merksteijn etc., those who can indulge their passion for motorsport, if the series appeals.
