Palttala replaces Vaxiviere in the ProSpeed Porsche (the driver injured in WSBR last weekend). Hoped for a Belgian in the likes of Soulet or Goossens, but a 60% Belgian and a cool guy such as Markus is OK as well :p

And Hindy seems convinced that there are something very real about the McLaren-Honda rumours... would be funny if it would be that stillborn HPD LMP1 with a McLaren engine, hehe.

I was just taking a wild guess. Was hoping for LMP1 but didn't really think Ford would step up to the plate like that.

Of course, 2016 will be the 50th Anniversary of their Lemans triumph with the GT40.

2015 will be the 50th anniversary for their glorious naive attempt to win the race in the first hour!

LMP1 would be :8: especially considering Ford's lack of racing programmes and being a general laughing stock outside of Nascar.

Also, here we have John Dagys crushing hopes (or he just doesn't know):

For those asking, Ford does not have any announcements planned for this weekend in Detroit.

@johndagys · 3h
It's crazy how rumors can spiral out of control. I think we'd all love (and dream) to see a Ford LMP1, but I don't think it's in the cards

"in Detroit" (TUSC), the rumor is about announcement at the track in La Sarthe, during the test day...

That's what I'm clinging to as well, plus even if it isn't Ford, G. Goodwin's words still stand...

I don't think I'll go for the 24h of Le Mans, but would this be worth it?

Yes, however do not go expecting a party atmosphere. It's a very different type of event, with a more classic and sophisticated feel to it.

Don't expect a true race also. More like a parade of classics.

Looks like there will be a live stream for the test day tomorrow... Security cameras only maybe but better than nothing.

It's already on, but it's just a high camera with the main straight/finnish line and boxes being shown

Hopefully, more than this tomorrow
