34 Full Season Entries for ELMS

A total of 34 entries have been announced for the 2015 European Le Mans Series today.

During the ACO press conference in Paris the entry list for the upcoming season was revealed, with 12 LMP2 cars headlining the series.

2014 European Le Mans Series winners Signatech-Alpine will not return to the series, resulting in no car wearing the No. 1 this season.

The LMP2 entry list confirmed SMP Racing will race in the ELMS this season with its new BR01, despite earlier plans to compete in the FIA WEC.

Seven LMP3 cars were confirmed, all of the teams entered full-season competing with a Ginetta-Juno LMP3.

GTE has come down from 13 cars announced in February 2014 to nine this season. Six Ferrari 458s are entered, five of them run by AF Corse. Marc VDS will race the previously announced BMW Z4 GTE, while Gulf Racing UK and Proton Competition will enter Porsches.

AF Corse will also run four cars in the GTC class, while TDS Racing was confirmed to enter a BMW Z4 GT3. Massive Motorsport will field its Aston Martin Vantage GT3.
