24 of the 28 automatic Le Mans invites have been accepted:

Here's the ACO announcement

According to Daily Sportscar, we may yet see Vitaphone at Le Mans. They will apply for an entry with a different car, likely to be a Ferrari F430.

I heard someplace else that it may be a Pescarolo-Michelin LMP1 that will almost certainly be selected , but i didnt find it on the web , so quite possibly a rumour .

Was hoping that RML would take up their 2nd entry .

AF Corse is there too , thought they were history ?

There will be 55 total selections (plus I believe still 8 reserves).

So we have 31 more cars to figure out.

The number per class is not set, although they seem to try and make it even.

I was thinking earlier today what might fill the spots, I figure LMP2 might end up the smallest class.

Don't forget the two Pugs. A second Creation entry? There has been some talk of Protran updating their car to LMP1 spec.

Audi may have submitted an application for it, but I do think that the ACO would reject it.

Just wondering...
Does anything other than VAG stop a private R8 entry?
I guess in practice this would be hard, if not impossible to support though.
