I doubt it. The DeltaWing concept (whether in open-top or coupe form) does not comply with the LMP rules. It would require a specific derogation from the ACO in order to be able to compete in the LMP1 class. The DeltaWing concept is basically dead as far as the FIA WEC and the 24h of Le Mans are concerned. Only remaining opportunity for the DeltaWing concept is ALMS in 2013 or possibly the "Grand-AmLMS" starting from 2014.
