Some numbers
Hypercar, 1030kg (1040kg for 4wd hybrids), 670bhp, 650bhp/tonne
LMP2, 930kg, 560bhp, 600bhp/tonne
The extra 100kg will be a disadvantage during acceleration from low speed, which will be traction-limited to some extent.
Hybrid power cuts shouldn't be an issue because the power unit can juggle ICE and hybrid to maintain max power. Not an issue for Alpine and Glickenhaus anyway, of course.
I hope they reduce the Hypercar minimum weight. Please just get it below 1000kg.
