A total of seven Audi R8 LMS and ultra cars are currently on the list. Seven cars fielded by five different teams. Phoenix Racing, Absolute Racing, United Autosports and Rotek Racing will each be fielding an Audi R8 LMS ultra. Melbourne Performance Centre will be entering three cars for their customers. This will include the cars of Rod Salmon, Mark Eddy / Marc Cini and Equity-One Motorsport. Five of the current Audi R8 LMS and ultra entries had previously been included on the entry list. The notable additions are Phoenix Racing, who’s participation was revealed earlier this week, and Rotek Racing, who won the 25 Hours of Thunderhill with their Audi TT RS last weekend.

The eighth and final car currently listed on the entry list is a second car from Rotek Racing. This entry is listed as an Audi A4. More information about this entry is expected in the coming weeks.
