I have my doubts concerning Johansson for the# 15. It has been a while since he showed something strong + his withdrawel the week before LM last year or the year before.

Auto hebdo announces today that the Care Racing entry is to be withdrawn. That could make the second TVR in and only two reserves left
other thing: Patrick Bourdais will join Bervillé and Blanchemain on the Panoz, Dupart (don't know who this can be) is on the Larbre 550 with Bouchut and Goueslard |

Thanks for that Bernard. This is news indeed !
But the GTS class keep on growing weaker and weaker, numerously talking... Good news for the GT class to have the second TVR indeed, though. But let's stop the blood leak, please ! |

Johansson withdrew from an Oreca Dallara , never did find out why . But I seem to recall something about safety being a rumour ?

He has many business interests that are racing related, and is a very busy man... He runs a driving school and a realy cool Go-Kart racing facility here... His former CART team went broke and sold its assets over the winter, but Stefan has a lot of good things going for him in the business world right now... He still loves to race, but other business matters require his time and attention to make driving an extensive part of his schedule... But that doesn't meant that he still doesn't have the talent, as noted by his involvement in the Bentley, and as one of Champion's drivers at Sebring in 2003 as well.. |

Well goodmorning Mr. Tim.
Just heard that J.Lammers hasn't made any choice concerning the other drivers. Same old story, waiting and looking for a lot of money... Seems that in GT and GTS class they're asking up to 150.000€ for a drive |

I knew of course about the Champcars team and the Karting centre (although I thought that had been re-named) and being Scott Dixon's Manager, but mentioning the other business interests has made me really curious as to what he's up to over there now! |

So does that mean a chance for Amanda Stretton in the TVR?

The withdrawal of the care Racing car could be due to financial problems, and the difficulty to find good pilots, according to Infocourse...
