It HAS to have been the aim I think. Like I said in the other thread, it's with a view to trying to 'tweak' the product for TV. The ACO talked about trying to increase entertainment value without sacrificing the core product.

People will have different views about how much this damages the core product. For me it certainly damages the more purist nature of Le Mans. Hyperpole did the same thing but many people will say it's an improvement. Time will tell I guess.
