Veggie BoP. Brilliant or Pants.

Brand new BOP:

So compared to last year we got:
  1. -40 hp for Alpine (~7% power reduction),
  2. -12 hp for Toyotas (~2% power reduction),
  3. +4 kg for Toyotas,
  4. 190 km/h AWD activation threshold.
Considering that last year Alpine was off-pace, I wouldn't expect anything else than them being even more off-pace this year.


But this is more interesting:

So last year they were doing 12-lap stints but this year with less power they expect 11-lap stints That Gibson for sure isn't the king of efficiency but in LMP1 years had well over 650 hp and Rebellions were doing 11-lap stints with same 75 L fuel tank. It almost seems as the less power it generates, the more fuel it consumes.
