Other "little" teams like pescarolo, oak, quiefel, dyson etc.... will run in LMS/ALMS. So if today ILMC champ shares some races with LMS/ALMS calendar, next year there will be a split.
The strangest thing is that none before today talked about this... not even "constructors"

I'd assume that "constructors" such as Lola, Pescarolo and Oreca would be allowed in the constructors championship, but who knows. Who knows about LMP2. The lack of a teams championship is odd as there is one in the ILMC. Of course, we are now getting a drivers championship. I'm not sure how I feel about that.
The LMS may run stand alone events next year, but that would not work for the ALMS. Surely at least one of Sebring or Petit would have to be part of the WEC, right?

Seemingly so with some new twists such as the drivers championship and maybe no team's championship. Will LMP2 still have a championship? We'll see. Also, does the WEC = FIA GT Endurance World Cup for GTEs? How are GTE-Ams (if they still exist) handled in regard to the FIA GT Endurance World Cup given that it is purely a constructors' title?
As for the Ratel series (the easy way to call it), are GTEs "technically" allowed if only 2009 GT2 cars are allowed? I'm not too concerned about that, but I guess it adds to the confusion.
