Sadly nope, during Shanghai WEC event I asked Hartmut Kristen if there's any possibilty to see an European team racing GTE PRO next year and he answered "I don't think so, due to cost issues and limited resources". Maybe techical support is another big problem besides the cost.
Proton plans to run a pair of 991 RSR next year, both in AM class. They could have 2 automatically entries, one for finishing 2nd in ELMS this year and a 2014 full season WEC entry. If Dempsey continues the deal then hopefully there's a 3rd Proton-prepared 991.
