E46 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
www.sportmotores.es reports that Epsilon Euskadi won´t have its second car this weekend at Monza. Also the same source reports that Shinji Nakano is a possible driver for Le Mans.

GT-Eins reports that the Cytosport car is indeed not taking part due to business commitments of Greg Pickett.

And the Larbre is not on the list because there is an FFSA GT weekend at Lédenon this weekend. So the Saleens are there.

Maybe Pickett should see if Lammers can get out of the Horag car for Monza or another LMS race, after all, Horag still has 2 other drivers. I really am looking forward to seeing them at Le Mans, Lammers in the Lola-Judd could bring back memories of the Dome when it was mixing it up at the front of the field (even leading for a short time).

I guess Oxford might make sense, but if they put it in Northampton all the cars would be on bricks within the hour...

With those two gone, that takes us down to 45 entries.

I guess it could be London, or even near the Bullring in Birmingham, though that's far less likely.

imagine some rorty racing cars in a completely green city, its practically one of the ultimate taboos, no doubt the snotty, ill informed middle class tree hugging students would be out protesting in force

i would think they could go to birmingham, not too far away or london, but northhampton would be the obvious choice, the closest city, even though its not exactly a erm welcoming place from my experience.

is the cytosport entry still on for monza?, or have they pulled a fast one now that they have their lemans entry?

They're still on DSC's version of the entry list (but so are a couple of cars that it's suggested above won't be at Monza- eg. the Watt Aston).

I hope they do make it to Monza, and I definitely hope there hasn't been a fast one pulled....Maybe the ACO should alter the rules so that any team given an entry who hasn't showed up to an LMS/ALMS race by, say late April, automatically forfeits their LM slot....

Having no commentary on the stream makes it even better now that the Radio LM does coverage, so it's going to be pretty perfect.
Hey up guys -stupid question time:

is this stream available in the States or UK? I'm on a business trip in America on Sunday so am delighted to hear RLM is picking it up but the experience would still be added to with the visuals.

However, if I click on the stream here in the UK, I'm told there are 'geo restrictions' so I assume this would also apply overseas. Is there a way to circumvent this?

If it's linked to your IP address you can get around this.

There was a Le Mans stream for German users a few years back, but you could get access to it.

Foreigners could watch German and Spanish streams of the Barcelona race.

Only partially imho. There's always been a spot for privateer protos historically despite works teams being out there. What is a certainty is that teams like Chamberlain will have a tough time on LMP1 or even to make it there. The current field (Audi, Peugeot, Lola-Aston, Pescarolo, Oreca...) will only allow for big time efforts like Epsilon Euskadi to take a shot at it and even then it's not easy... I agree there's also a gap opening in LMP2 but it's still a more accessible class to race in even if the Porsches and other strong efforts like Embassy might raise the bar in the next year or so. Not the "us and them" from the ALMS where you cannot compete with Acura and Penske but starting to go in that direction...
