Notes

  1. G-Drive Racing was scheduled to field two LMP2 entries, including one in the LMP2 Pro-Am Cup,[12][13] but the team and driver Roman Rusinov refused to accept the FIA's code of conduct regarding the participation of Russian competitors after the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, and withdrew on 6 March.[14][15] Algarve Pro Racing, who operated the G-Drive LMP2 program, took over both entries independently.[11]
  2. G-Drive Racing was scheduled to field an LMP3 entry,[13] but the team and driver Evgeny Kireev refused to accept the FIA's code of conduct regarding the participation of Russian competitors after the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, and withdrew on 6 March.[45][46] Eurointernational, who operated the G-Drive LMP3 program, took over the entry independently, therefore expanding to a two-car effort alongside its existing #11 car.[11]
