It is about "Nascar" being there, so they are trying to retain as much of 'the look' as they can. Spoiler, but addition of what they call 'canards' on the read flanks, dive planes on the front. But the same stance to the car.
Feb 21, 2023 is the 75th anniversary of the founding of Nascar, and this year's LeMans 24 is the 100th Anniversary for that race. Nascar wanted to be there, and be a part of the 100th celebration, while trying to maintain their identity.
The 'innovative' aspect of this project is the marketing.
