@Holdenhsvgtsr interested in the Jaguar turn around...
BMW is a rumour still, but gathering pace.
Porsche may be leaving GTE as a factory team end of year.
Corvette are stateside only.
Ford plans are unknown as to if TUDOR or WEC?
Toyota only currently committed to 2017?
Toyota...are a bunch of loonies so...who knows. But being that this is their only big factory effort, they'll stay probably.
Like that requires a WEC budget.WRC says hi.
VW rumoured to have spent 100 million on the polo.Like that requires a WEC budget.It's a flipping Yaris.
Besides that's not until 2017, so, they aren't burning money yet.
Toyota can afford it.VW rumoured to have spent 100 million on the polo.
Hyundai 80 million.
Which is where the issue liesIn the words of Michael J Fuller of Mulsanne Corner:
"Toyota are ruled by accountants"
In how many years, Audi spends nearly double that a season, same with Porsche in WEC.VW rumoured to have spent 100 million on the polo.
Hyundai 80 million.
Per season.In how many years, Audi spends nearly double that a season, same with Porsche in WEC.

YYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
4 GT's at Le Mans maybe?!![]()
Still though...this is epic. And I predicted that would be the setup...and I'm usually wrong...yay!Probably more like the factory Porsche 991 TUDOR / WEC programs.
Multimatic is said to be running the program out of England.Now what team in Europe has the ability to run a factory GTE program?
Maybe I should read the links I read and then post.Multimatic is said to be running the program out of England.

I believe so. The article (last I read it) seemed to mention that. How fitting, the old Lola factory is now the home of the new European Ford GT effort.Would that be at the old Lola facility then as Multimatic bought all of the Lola assets did they not?
Actually, they can't. That's why they left F1. Luckily they won the 2014 WEC season, but if the TS040 project isn't a success, I can perfectly imagine Toyota quitting it.Toyota can afford it.![]()
