LM24 Le Mans 2004 entry list - Page 52

**Aysedasi** · 20 Apr 2004, 20:58 (Ref:945993)

Well, I guess that rules out the reliability of the ACO's list then, doesn't it......

Come back Stephane Daoudi - all is forgiven, eh?

Does anyone know anything about these two drivers?

BTW....

it's about that time of year for our "Faithful Moderators" to start the "Who will Take the LM Pole (with speed listed)" and the reasonable facsimile of the "Top 5 in each Class" threads, isn't it???

As if you don't already have your hands full just changing the "Entry List"....they're dropping like flies...

**Aysedasi** · 20 Apr 2004, 21:04 (Ref:946001)

We've all had those two names up for the Panoz for yonks. They drove the car with Christophe Bouchut at Sebring this year, finishing 9th - 33 laps down. ASs I recall (without checking) Berville has raced at Le Mans before, but Blanchemain is a new name to me.

Tim, thanks for the reminder

Not wanting to sound pushy, but I'd like to hold off on the pole-taker, winner and first retirement polls for a short while. I would also be grateful if no-one else started the threads on these subjects for a little while. Inevitably, Le Mans is tending to dominate our thoughts at the moment (yes, I know, it dominates mine all the time!), but there are other things to discuss, and if we put up 2-3 polls and make them sticky, we begin to look as though we think there is nothing else to sportscars than Le Mans....

Besides, I'd like to suggest that mon ami Fab handles the polls this year, if he'd be so kind.........

Looks like the car will certainly now finish behind the GTS cars because those two were way off the pace at Sebring. They really never broke 2:00 at Sebring.

rdjones · 20 Apr 2004, 21:08 (Ref:946009)

so Ayse Christophe Bouchut is sharing the Larbe Ferrari with Christophe Bouchut :confused:

**Aysedasi** · 20 Apr 2004, 21:10 (Ref:946010)

Oops. Isn't that how you spell Patrice Goueslard?

Bervillé was on the #84 T2M Porsche in 2003 with Ickx and Bourdais (well, Vanina and Patrick)

Blanchemain mainly raced in the french championships

That's fine with me, Ayse....and no...it doesn't sound "pushy" at all...it makes great sense....

Hell, if anything, my post was "pushy"

But whenever you or Fab or whoever gears those thread up is fine with me....but it probably should be a moderator so that the times. the predictions, etc., and such can be tracked properly...

Those thread get VERY long over the course of many weeks...

I also agree that since we have Test Days coming, not to mention the LMES Season Opener at Monza, which both deserve our full attention before we go off making our usual "guesstimates" on Pole Times, etc...

bernard b · 20 Apr 2004, 21:58 (Ref:946071)

BTW Ayse, Philip Peter is supposed to drive the Nürburgring 24 in june (his site ), so he may not be in #92 Ferrari

kdr · 20 Apr 2004, 22:38 (Ref:946126)

The Badger · 21 Apr 2004, 05:38 (Ref:946309)

Great news indeed about the RfH car ..... Now , lets get serious and take the scrap to Audi , Oh boy ..... I cant wait !!!

The Badger · 21 Apr 2004, 09:03 (Ref:946426)

LMAO ..... glad you made the distinction Bernard

jcz · 21 Apr 2004, 09:36 (Ref:946453)

I read on lmsr.net Coronel comment to Lister last changes.

"For me it is a shame, but for the team it was a necessary thing to do. Lister really needs this deal, so that's why I agreed with Laurence to step back", Tom said. In order to prepare the three danish drivers for Le Mans they will also race in the opening round of the Le Mans Endurance series. No decisions have been made about the remaining three races. "I hope to be back in the Storm LMP for those events. The LMP car is a great car to drive so I definitely want to race it in anger", Coronel said.
At the moment Tom Coronel is busy to work out an alternative deal for Le Mans. "It is a bit short notice now, when most of the teams already have signed up their drivers, but I want to give it a try. Le Mans is the greatest race of the year for me so I really want to be there", Coronel concluded."

I do not know where is sources. I had little worry, but when is this true, I am happy that Coronel take this change reasonable and will continue with Lister - now find new driver for GT progremme and take good final result in FIA GT.

I think this is the all female entered car.

The Badger · 21 Apr 2004, 10:25 (Ref:946484)

I can see Wallace-Brabham-Leitzinger-Johansson-Hillebrand-Coronel-Goossens-Theys-Van de Poele-De Radigues . A mate just told me that when Wallace was asked about his team mates , he seemed to dodge the question . So maybe Ortiz-Gabiainni too !!!

# 15 Lammers-Dyson-Johansson
# 16 Wallace-Leitzinger-Goossens ..... I wish !!!

class4v · 21 Apr 2004, 10:36 (Ref:946494)

Hope also Goossens will ben onthe 2nd RfH. Christophe Tinseau looks to be on ne of the C65's

The Badger · 21 Apr 2004, 10:48 (Ref:946505)

Gounon was testing a C65 too . I hope Didier Cottaz gets a drive in one too .....

class4v · 21 Apr 2004, 10:55 (Ref:946516)

The relation between Courage and Cottaz wasn't that good anymore after LM 2002. Don't think Yves wants him back in one of his teams.

#15 lineup seems reasonable to me...this could very well be the three drivers. For the #16 car: Wallace is no option because of Zytek. Goossens would be a possibility, as well as Leitzinger. So we need another one...and what about Leitzinger and Goossens; do they have money?
