Don't you need to have an Asian driver to compete as a team in the AsLMS?

I'm sure it's also more business-savvy in terms of attracting sponsors and interest.

Or maybe he just wants to represent China. Seems like he had a 50/50 choice.

I believe Emma Peel drove one of two different Lotus Elans:
Season 4;


Season 5;


The Lotus Europa was driven by Emma Peel's successor, Tara King.

Philippe Haezebrouck will test for Gulf ME on Sunday. There were rumours Fatien might not race so let's see if it turns into a race seat.

Didn't Fatien or Giroix already definitely drop out?
I'm sure I read that a couple of weeks back.

Here's a pic of the Larbre Competition Corvette testing, by the way. This has a few different logos on it as it's the #70 car, like WeatherTech.

Another potential entry change - Stéphane Lémeret in for Stéphane Raffin at DKR. Not earth-shattering news but still all part of the story.

MacNeil brings WeatherTech money, Dumas would bring Hexis money also.
