ACO release final 2007 entry list
Le Mans organisers have released today the final entry list for the 24 Hours of Le Mans, with 55 car entries chosen from 76 applications
The 2007 event marks the biggest line-up since 1989, with 41 teams hailing from 13 different countries.
"The choice is never easy and this year all the entry forms we received were perfect," said ACO sporting director Daniel Poissenot.
"This allowed the committee to concentrate on the main criteria laid down in the regulations concerning choice: in particular, the entry of the teams for the 2007 Le Mans Series and of course the quality of their results during the previous season in the different Le Mans Series."
Of the 55 entrants, 28 are prototype cars - with 16 of these in the LMP1 category. Last year's winners Audi have car numbers 1, 2 and 3, while new entrants Peugeot will run with numbers 7 and 8.
In the GT1 category, champions Corvette are set to resume their battle with Aston Martin, the latter retaining their now traditional 007 and 009 car numbers.
