You cannot be serious with that comment !?!?!?

The only reason the WEC grid is looking so healthy is that teams enter to get a guaranteed position for the race , as well as being an international championship .

The jewel of the crown is still , and always will be Le Mans . A championship means nothing to manufacturers , compared to the bragging rights of that big elusive win .
