The first question to ask is what is a reasonable variation in performance? Obviously it is unrealistic to expect nose to tail after hours of racing. Purely from a statistical perspective.
While there is a hierarchy in the teams, the gaps between them are comparable with gaps between cars in the same team being similar to gaps between teams. We are also seeing a similar spread across LMP2, which is all the same car!
That for me, is a decent result. Could be closer, could clearly be worse.
And we haven't been through all drivers and conditions yet.
I reserve full judgement on this.
