Would be an odd move if this wasnt part of a bigger picture.

What do you really gain from just a single year in a grandfathered P1?

They (as in Renault) must also be rather conscious of the impending Pug entry in 2022, seems like getting in a year earlier than them and setting up shop isnt the worst strategy. Learn a bit about the series in 21, before hitting it with a pair of LMDH's in 22 to challenge Pug.
