They should not : this new rule will have a negative effect on the overall race pace. Leader will not need to push to create any gap as he knows it will be crushed anytime. Which means there are even less chance of a mechanical issue or driver mistake at the front. If Toyota or Ferrari runs at 90% of their potential, Porsche has no chance to win.

Furthermore, they say 20 minutes of racing are lost to put the procedure fully in place. This doesn't make any sense to stop the race 20 more minutes after an incident leading itself in a lengthy race stoppage. Whoever designed that procedure is simply dumb : probably the very same guy who decided a few years ago to allow changing tires and refuelling in the same time the US way. It was a predictable complete disaster.
