I think that is exactly Mclarens issue- resources
The lower level of support on track and potentially lower reliability are big factors
As it stands there are 5x 720s GT3’s for sale on Racecars Direct:
1x Balfe
2x 2 Seas
2x 59 Racing
Not great but I do remember the same happening with the 650s and MP12C
