It's Darren Turner who races in the BTCC not Jamie Davis. It is worthing pointing out that he didn't the test day last year either as was racing (and winning) for Seat at Croft that day instead. He wouldn't be able to make the test day this year either as that again clashes with the Croft BTCC round again.

Darren Turner is already on the LM list as qualified driver. A new driver needs to do their 10 laps to be on the list. Chilton had never done his 10 laps.

Charouz! i thought.

Wendlinger deserves a factory seat, but IMO RaceAlliance deserve a Le Mans slot. Did they apply?

I doubt that they applied as there is a FIA GT the weekend after LM, so they would have needed a 3rd car to do LM with.

They could also had an AMR chassis, just like Vitaphone has.

I read someplace , that if a driver hasnt been there for 3 years , regardless of him being there before , he has to do his 10 laps all over again . I must admit , I never heard that before .

Any truth in it ?

I suppose its to do with track changes and safety? Only guessing but that would be logical.

A really quick scan through the regs on the ACO site doesn't seem to mention this explicitly, that said article 6.1.5 of the supplementary regs basically says if you're not on the pre-approved list then you have to go to the test day. Using the entirely unscientific indicator of Giovanni Lavaggi not being on the approved list despite being a prior competitor, it might well be that your qualification expires if you don't race.

Having looked at that list, it would be interesting to know how it's compiled - it has to be based on time, surely? If I had the time I'd sit down and work out when each driver on it last raced at Le Mans, but I left my anorak at work.......

Why wouldn't they put Montagny with Gene" & Minassian? They would just blow people away! Probably be able to run with McNish, Capello & Kristinsen.

Seems like Peugout has went for 3 equaly strong cars. Compared to Audi where on paper there is a clear ranking among the 3 pairs.

Might be a good idea for Peugeout, since they probably will have reliability issues. By making all 3 cars strong, they just need one of their cars to run trouble free to challenge for the win.

Not sure if this has been noted already, but Rick Bryan has told Endurance-Info that Terry Borcheller will join Antonio Garcia (+1) in the Modena Aston at Le Mans. The car has been upgraded and is running with 2007 AMR developments this year.
