If you look at it that way we'd have to wait until the first practice session goes green to see who is technically "committed" to the FIA WEC. It's really quite a silly way to look at it --- nothing would ever be "confirmed" until the first practice session at an event.

I completely agree... it's team centric, and long live it. But so is football, American football, baseball, cricket, basketball, and look how popular they've gotten. Just because a sport or series is "team centric" doesn't mean it can't become popular.
