I like the new livery. I do not like the last year livery with more blue. Personally I like the Risi red, but I understand the homage of the 70 years Who Will be the drivers of the three cars in Le Mans? 51 Pier Guidi - Calado and.............. 71 Bird - Rigon and................. 82 Fisichella - Vilander and............. Bertolini, Maluchelli and Beretta? Who's in each car?
I can't wait either. I went to Sebring last week. The cars were epic. The Ford GT looks fantastic in person. The Ferrari's looked strong.
Too bad it sounds like...how shall I say?...sheet. (sorta like F1 these days, flat). A gent at the Roar said they sounded like 962s. When questioned, his reasoning was they're both turbo sixes. My ears are tuned differently, I guess. A real fan ....I could tell.

Ferrari Press Release: Monza, 31 March 2017 - Ferrari has reached an agreement with Lucas Di Grassi for the 24 Hours of Le Mans (14-18 June). The 32 year-old Brazilian driver, who has already taken part in the French classic race on four occasions recording three podium finishes, will join James Calado and Alessandro Pier Guidi in the AF Corse team no. 51 488 GTE. I'm very happy to be back at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Every professional racing driver wants to be part of history and to race for Ferrari means a lot to me. Manufacturer backed GTE-Pro is undoubtedly the best place to be after my four years in LMP1, said Di Grassi. Eleven Ferraris will start the 24 Hours of Le Mans, three of them in the GTE-Pro class. As well as the no. 51 488 GTE, AF Corse will deploy no. 71 crewed by Davide Rigon, Sam Bird and Miguel Molina. The no. 82 Risi Competizione car will be crewed by Giancarlo Fisichella, Toni Vilander and Pierre Kaffer.
Full entry list... Interesting, a Prost and a Senna teaming in the same car. Le Mans 24 Hours Entry List ? dailysportscar.com BHW
I think that's unlikely this year. Being in the same category as the hybrid factory teams put the private competitors which don't have that technology at a clear disadvantage. Rebellion is now in LMP2, and only ByKolle is left. But there is hope at the horizon; Audi leaving and Porsche fielding only 2 cars has made the ACO rethink their rules.
ByKolle has that god awful nissan to deal with. Not exactly a competitor. It's Toyota vs Porsche this year and Toyota is running 3 cars.
Pretty unlikely indeed...like 100%. We knew about Rebellion and Bykolle months ago.The Invitation list has been out for months. The Entry list is out.
I dunno...Toyota looked pretty good at silverstone. Its LeMans, anything can happen! Thats why we watch
Who can and will beat de Prototype GT Ford at Le Mans? Ford will have 4 works cars in GT-Pro, whereas Ferrari has 2 works cars and one privateer: Risi
