Thirteenth is Kessel Racing’s number 57 with Takeshi Kimura taking over from official driver Daniel Serra. Fifteenth is the number 66 JMW Motorsport entry, driven by Thomas Neubauer, the morning’s winner of round four of the Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli Europe held on the Le Mans track. Twenty-first is AF Corse’s number 21 with Ulysse De Pauw having swapped places with Simon Mann.
