Maybe require a fin at roof height back to the rear wing? Hopefully they get scrapped altogether.

Also, the cars will be significantly heavier so maybe that will help to keep them on the ground, GTE-style.
Good point on the weight, GTE cars didn't have the same flying problem as LMP1, but then again they weren't going as fast.
