The FIA World Endurance Championship has released the updated entry list for the upcoming 1000 Miles of Sebring, which features a number of changes throughout all four classes.
In LMP1, Team LNT returns to the championship after being absent from the previous round at Circuit of the Americas. The team once again fields its pair of Ginetta G60-LT-P1 – AERs. The #5 car will be driven by Charlie Robertson, Ben Hanley and Jordan King, while the #6 is piloted by Michael Simpson, Chris Dyson and Guy Smith.
Job van Uitert returns to the #29 Racing Team Nederland ORECA 07-Gibson, replacing Nyck de Vries. The swap was originally caused by a Formula E clash for De Vries. While that clash has since been resolved due to the postponement of the Sanya E-Prix, Van Uitert remains part of the line-up. The Dutchman last raced with the team at the Silverstone season opener, where he took class pole and a podium finish.
Corvette Racing returns to the championship for the second round following last month’s Lone Star Le Mans, with the #63 C8.R driven by Jan Magnussen and Mike Rockenfeller. AF Corse is the only team to enter a third driver. Daniel Serra joins James Calado and Alessandro Pier Guidi to reform the 2019 Le Mans winning line-up on board the #51 Ferrari 488 GTE Evo, while Sam Bird returns to join Davide Rigon and Miguel Molina behind the wheel of the #71 car.
GTE Am features one change as Come Ledogar replaces Olivier Beretta on board the #70 MR Racing Ferrari 488 GTE Evo.
