Even with Drayson uncertain and Henri and Hugues looking for sponsorship to do the ILMC, that is an impressive list of LMP's already considering the season is so far away. The fact that the ACO will require them to do the full season makes the prospect of the ILMC very exciting for me at this point as we will get to see those cars twice in North America next year.
Plus Audi, Aston, and Peugeot will all be debuting new hardware so it will be very unpredictable.
