Well then that is their problem, or split the team, plus unless the entire IMSA grid has qualified for LeMans, I do not really see a problem.
As for the number of races; NASCAR is out of the equation, the France family started to set this up thirty years ago, and those who try to copy them fail miserably.
I have yet to see a road race series that truly profits from an increased number of races.
History has shown the problems for the sanction and teams with increased travel, and expenses, at the minimum, turns a high quality must see program, into a half-arsed sad folly.
