Entry list out, have AM pulled out of top flight GT racing?
Yes, to focus on F1 with their new AM team. This is nonsense IMO, as the new F1 AM is just last years pink Mercedes with an AML badge and painted green. They were very successful in their natural environment of Sportscar racing, winning their class at LM last year as well as the GTPro and GTAm world titles. If its win on Sunday sell on Monday, that's the way to do it, not trail around mid grid and be humiliated by Mercedes, Ferrari and Red Bull in F1.Entry list out, have AM pulled out of top flight GT racing?

Exactly, you know your history! Look how well that turned out for David Brown with the F1 DBR4! Wyer saw the light after the '59 LM win and moved onto FAV with the GT40 after sounding out Jaguar's plans with Hawthorn. He was a master tactician, and after he proved he could beat Porsche consistently fielding a team of just 3 well used and over the hill GT 40's in the 68 and 69 seasons against over 40 new 906's and 908's used by Porsche to try to beat him in those seasons, they hired his team lock stock and barrel to run their 917 campaign sponsored by Gulf, and he won again. "Deathray" was the man!So it really is 59/60 all over again.
Oh **** it. Hope the main stays on but I am not confidentLe Mans Classic scheduled for early July has just been cancelled and put back to its usual even years in July 2022.
Given the situation in France, there is every chance the 24H will be behind closed doors again.
Had a feeling this would happen - our group had already decided not to go - 2022 it is then!!Le Mans Classic scheduled for early July has just been cancelled and put back to its usual even years in July 2022.
