Sure!
Original schedule:
WEC Fuji 6H - september 30
WEC Bahrain 6H - october 21 clashed with ALMS Petit Le Mans
No prior discussions between ACO and ALMS it seemed about these dates, a LOT of wondering why´s (to say the least).
Petit Le Mans therefor demoted to ´nothing but a national event´* (like Laguna, Road America, etc.)
* no punt intended!
Updated calender: see prior posts. No WEC race scheduled on same weekend as the Petit which - as a result of this - could be ´offered a lifeline´ as far as still being an international classic next year (although logistics suggest that will be very hard for potential participating teams).
Now, would it be a good idea to put the Petit one week further back to give potential entries a reasonable amount of time to make the trip from Japan before they fly back to China? It would save Audi one more clash with their DTM activities.
