No third car. Always a long shot in the time available to confirm everything.

Full list + reserves - https://mcusercontent.com/b5f125906f...ars_090322.pdf
A lack of real news or noteworthy stuff but not sure what anyone expected really. It's still going to be a very high quality motor race in three of the classes you'd imagine. |

After missing 20 and 21, wild horses couldn't keep me away.

Historically you'd like to think they'd get an entry, but purely on this year's programmes alone (cherry picking US events) they don't. |

Still seems a shame to potentially lose such a strong and popular entry.
I see Algarve Pro made it - with two cars. |

Again in GT-Am you've got some ELMS stalwarts JMW, a movie star + ELMS full season in Proton. Kessel ELMS full season (sounds like they also got flicked for the WEC entry list) and Weathertech who are IMSA full season. Very little wiggle room this year. I think it's also the most populated LM entry I've seen in a long time in terms of drivers already announced. I think WEC season about to start plays a bit part in that. |

Agreed. Of course I would like Peugeot to be there, and a works Aston GTE Pro entry and more than one non-ORECA (shout out to CD Sport's lonely Ligier), but it's more than just the entry list that gets me there. And I need to get back into the swing of things before the big one next year. |

Even with the cars on the reserve list, this is a strong entry. So many cars in the "am" classes have a legitimate shot.
Speaking of reserve list, with so much uncertainty right now, is it possible we will see some attrition from the entry? |

It’s amazing really how the world is in the shape it is (Covid, Russia/Ukraine) yet this is probably the highest demand they’ve had for a Le Mans entry in a long time

Racing Team Nederland and High Class Racing consider pulling their entries from the reserve list.
Interesting comments from both on the impact on Dutch and Danish interest in the race without them. https://sportscar365.com/lemans/wec/...serve-entries/ |

It is a difficult one - ACO has to prioritise WEC/ELMS and Asian Le Mans Series entries and allow top teams from IMSA as well.
Also it is a bit unfair to leave out teams that have been part of ACO racing and have a considerable following because they switched series. I do not want to be the person/committee that has to make final decisions on this matter |

And on top of that consider having some sort of qualifying session/race for the last remaining 2-4 spots, reserving at least one for a prototype and one for a GT. Again, based on transparent qualifications to determine eligibility. This would give longtime supporting teams and drivers the opportunity to at least compete for an entry. |
