They said the grid will be limited to 36-37 cars and Imola only have 32 garages. So teams in GT3 will probably have only one garage (like it is the case in GTWC when they race at Imola). McLaren will probably be run by Inception according to EI and Mercedes by HRT. They also predict Manthey for Porsche but for sure it wasn’t done last time I spoke with someone from Manthey 1 month ago (personal info).
Joest was the support team for Mazda when they were racing in IMSA, so I think there could be more support from Europe. On the other hand, there are always European teams helping American teams when they race in the WEC or at Le Mans, so that should be reciprocal as well.
I remember when the did the fastest lap in LMGT qualifying in 2001. It was only against Porsche but today we can’t imagine anymore a private build GT doing the fastest lap. RIP
