They have been struggling over the last couple of seasons with only mid-teens figures when they ran GT3-only.
They thought they could boost that above 20 again by adding LMP3s, but less P3 teams than expected showed up and a lot of GT-teams weren't happy about playing second fiddle to the prototypes so they packed up and left.
Oh, and then there's VdeV, which has become a serious rival series, basically offering the same package but in a less glitzy, but also less costly and more relaxed environment.
And then, I guess the lackluster performance of the French economy and the lure of international series like BES and ELMS also played into it.
