1. Stefan Mucke
Aston Martin Racing
Lola-Aston Martin B09/60
LMS starts: 5
Poles: 1
Wins: 2
Championship position: 1st
AMR's new team leader grasped the mantle with both hands and ran with it. Fast and consistent, the ex-DTM man only made one obvious mistake during the season
2. Nicolas Lapierre
Team ORECA
ORECA-AIM 01
LMS starts: 4
Poles: 2
Wins: 1
Championship position: 6th
This second-year prototype driver could well be the fastest LMS regular in P1 - witness two pole positions. Lapierre surely has a big future in sportscars
3. Jean-Christophe Boullion
Pescarolo
Pescarolo-Judd 01
LMS starts: 5
Poles: 0
Wins: 1
Championship position: 4th
The veteran reminded everyone that he's still got what it takes to compete at this level. His drive from the back at Silverstone was breathtaking
4. Olivier Panis
Team ORECA
ORECA-AIM 01
LMS starts: 4
Poles: 0
Wins: 1
Championship position: 6th
The man with nothing left to prove was happy to let Lapierre take the qualifying glory. He was always on the race pace and there were times when he was electrifying
5. Danny Watts
Strakka Racing
Ginetta-Zytek
LMS starts: 5
Poles: 1
Wins: 0
Championship position: 29th
He flew in his first full season as a prototype driver, but that's not the only reason Watts has a big future. He is consistent, technically strong and a team player
6. Darren Turner
Aston Martin Racing
Lola-Aston Martin B09/60
LMS starts: 5
Poles: 0
Wins: 0
Championship position: 8th
Turner quickly got to grips with a prototype and was giving little away by mid-season. His position in the second car meant he was never going to win races
7. Andrea Belicchi
Speedy Racing Team Sebah
Lola-Aston Martin B08/60
LMS starts: 5
Poles: 0
Wins: 0
Championship position: 10th
No problems stepping up to P1 for a driver who had the edge on Speedy/Sebah team-mate Marcel Fassler, but didn't get the results he deserved
8. Christijan Albers
Kolles Racing
Audi R10 TDi
LMS starts: 5
Poles: 0
Wins: 0
Championship position: 27th
The prototype newcomer stood head and shoulders above his team-mates at the Kolles Audi squad. He gave it his all at every opportunity in a difficult environment
9. Tomas Enge
Aston Martin Racing
Lola-Aston Martin B09/60
LMS starts: 5
Poles: 1
Wins: 2
Championship position: 1st
The mercurial Czech knuckled down after being placed on probation following his pre-season shunt at Paul Ricard. That error would undoubtedly have blunted his edge
10. Bruno Senna
Team ORECA
ORECA-AIM 01
LMS starts: 3
Poles: 0
Wins: 0
Championship position: 16th
It was difficult to judge his truncated season in what was definitely ORECA's second-string car. He didn't truly make a mark, except with a car-destroying shunt at Spa
