The ACO launches the 2017 FIA World Endurance and European Le Mans Series season with a live-streamed press conference at 3pm GMT.

Entries for the 2017 Le Mans 24 Hours will be confirmed, so too the season entries for the WEC and ELMS. 

Toyota has already confirmed today (February 2) that it will be fielding a third car at round two at Spa-Francorchamps, Belgium, and at Le Mans in a bid to finally claim its first victory at La Sarthe.

As expected, Argentine José María López, a winner in GP2 and triple World Touring Car champion, will contest the full season alongside Mike Conway and Kamui Kobayashi in the second Toyota. Stépane Sarrazin will move to lead car three, with his co-drivers announced in the coming weeks.
