==Pre-race==
After the 1999 race, most of the manufacturers in the top classes went in different directions. [[BMW]] and [[Toyota]] went into [[Formula One]], while [[Mercedes-Benz]] left sportscars after the [[Mercedes-Benz CLR|CLR]] accidents, returning to the [[Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters|DTM]].  [[Nissan]] also left due to financial difficulties.  Only [[Audi]] and [[Panoz]] remained from the previous year, while newcomer [[Cadillac]] joined.
