Koenigsegg should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Or he might be the Pro driver for Khaled al Qubaisi?

It would be interesting for him, but I'm unsure.

I'm pretty sure this exact story ran a few weeks ago but Patrick Dempsey/Joe Foster are planning to put in an entry this week for the race - linking up with Proton again.

http://sportscar365.com/wec/lemans/d...r-lm24-return/

Pretty crazy that the deadline is two days away and they still can't confirm whether they'll put in an entry. But I suppose anyone who watched their documentary knows that they are often scraping together funding.

If Dempsey Racing returns back to Le Mans, wouldn't it be a good return? It's good if they return to Le Mans IMO.

It would definitely be a good thing.
Not only is Patrick Dempsey a big star from outside the racing world, but his team missed the podium by less than a lap in 2013.
They showed they deserve their place.

I wish them the best of luck this year.

Odd place to spin out, to be frank. Even if you got a bit of help from another car. Normally cars don't come to rest right there....

Ah, wish I could've been there... my dad was being an old curmudgeon and insisted we go back to the off-site camping to get some rest. Time to book the Novotel with TravelDestinations and just have him stay in the room.

I still don't think the car that turned him around was ever conclusively identified.

Rumours are that Minassian is getting into bed with SMP this year. Moving from one AF Corse-run Oreca team to another.

Oh he was very definitely spun. I watched it but didn't identify the culprit. But more than just a bit of help.....

Less than 24 hours remaining if you want to put in your entry for Le Mans.

I think we should hopefully find out a few bits and pieces tomorrow when teams can officially say they've logged their entries.

Always curious about the ones that get lodged and don't make the entry or reserve list, pondering about what manner of speculative vapourware or blind optimism makes up these numbers.

Rent-a-ride Boutsen Ginion are putting in an entry again: http://www.endurance-info.com/fr/dos...ans-le-baquet/

Hopefully they will be a ways down the reserve list on sporting grounds. But knowing the ACO they'll be straight in.
