At the Rolex 24, there are two prototype classes. The PC class are all spec and play second fiddle to the senior prototype class, made up of Daytona Prototypes and former ALMS P2 machines.
Action Express go into this event as the reigning champions, with the trio of Barbosa/Fittipaldi/Bourdais hoping to repeat their 2014 triumph in their Corvette DP. Michael Shank Racing will start from pole position this weekend with the No. 01 alongside.
Here's a look at the 16 entries in the main prototype class because barring some kind of spectacular upset, one of them will be crowned the overall victors of the Rolex 24.
