For safety reasons slow zones will be used, but the system will be different to that of the Le Mans 24 Hours. Eight to ten zones will be in place with signalisation and control of the average speeds. For this new event Shell will be the official fuel supplier, and in compliance with the regulations refuelling will be forbidden during the practice sessions and the race. There will be no limit on tyres. A single slick specification will be available for each category and Michelin will be the sole supplier. The whole field will have a paddock and a dedicated hospitality unit on the Maison Blanche circuit. Road to Le Mans reinforces the determination of the ACO to consolidate the development of the endurance nursery and to highlight the promotional categories in this branch of the sport. Reminder: the support race programme for the Le Mans 24 Hours will be completed by the Ferrari Challenge. *Rules concerning the driver line-ups GT3 •2 drivers: Bronze/Bronze or Bronze/Silver or Bronze/Gold •1 driver: (not allowed for Michelin GT3 Le Mans Cup competitors): Bronze LM P3 •2 drivers: Bronze/Silver or Bronze/Bronze •1 driver: Bronze
