Looking like an interesting entry list and the top 11 with five manufacturers is a promising sign.
Sad we won't have the background of mad mad mad spectators but I guess whatever the practicalities it would be politically untennable to have even a scattering of them around that enormous track.

I think I saw a Dacia Logan qualified last...that's what I like about this event. Bang up to date GT3 car, Vs something cheap knocked up at a local garage. Madness.
It says here the Dacia is a DNQ with a 12:47 Qualifying pdfSo not sure if that means it cannot run as it's failed to meet a maximum time cutoff, next slowest car is an 11.26, I still also love the insanity of the closisg speeds of maxxed out GT3 class vs "roadish" classes. But maybe they had to draw the line somewhere.

Dacia Logan might be excluded by the rule that the slowest car must be withing 120% of fastest in it's class.
31.4 Qualification time timed Qualifying session To be allowed to take part in the race, a team must set a time below 120% of the fastest time in the corresponding class during the timed qualifying session. The Clerk of the Course may grant waivers.
SP3 Manta was 604seconds.
SP3 Dacia was 759seconds and 35s shy of the 724s needed to be within 120% of the Manta.
But they still might get a waiver to run.

Land playing games, not only will they have to wait until the field clears pitlane they also have a 1 minute penalty for missing the formation lap.
Doesn't look wet enough to warrant wet tyres - yet!
I see the manta is in the pack
Edit: '#29 Land Audi leaves the pits on slicks, don't think it was a smart play to try that.
