Mika Hakkinen, Frankie Chen, and Thomas Jager will be the drivers for the Mercedes supposedly. Also, Level 5's PR says they will be at China. The entry list says otherwise, but I guess we'll see.

re:
You think the GT3 cars will be running up to the speeds of the GT2 cars. The GT3's were actually faster at Silverstone. Granted I dont know about the quality of the teams that will run the Audis and the one Mercedes but it will be interested. I hope there will be a way to watch it streaming on line

I bet they will. Maybe not as consistent, but I bet their times will be up there.

Great to see Mercedes in the ILMC, even if it is just in GTC. Any chance they could do a full WEC season?

I hope Hakkinen gets the endurance bug and maybe moves up to GT next year. Would be good to see whether he has the pace but I'm not sure whether his Merc links will prevent him driving something else.

Are Audi and Peugeot doing their streams? Presumably they will be if the track is fitted out with the right infrastructure.

John Dagys said Adrian Fernandez has NASCAR commitments. He also confirmed Hakkinen's ILMC debut. |

Also, an update for Hakkinen's car, the third driver will now be Lance-David Arnold. http://www.endurance-info.com/versio...ance-8563.html

VIP tickets are available from Macau Tickets. (MOP = Macau Patacas. US$1 about MOP8) The Saturday ticket is MOP2,000... for less than an hour's qualifying... so steep... |

Seems like it, the main sponsor is owned by Lowe's who is Fernandez's main personal sponsor in racing. |

Did the track solve the problem with marshals and medical care? This fairytale is complicated.
