Awesome insight there Napolis

Curious you mention "--- we still believe non hybrid LMP1 car could be engineered ---" when the reports have spoken more on you actually considering hybrid for the proposed LMP1?

Anyhow, so do you think, if the ELMS allowed (privateer) LMP1s again, that you would be able to pull of theoretical budget estimate for that (+ Le Mans) and still have the same ROI as with WEC? Battle for overall wins in regional series and do oneoff fight against the factories at Sarthe. Maybe create customer market.

Though I don't think anything's gonna change in that front - ELMS reallowing anything else than LMP2 as lead class again that is - unless teams start making queries to ACO about it.

The ELMS can great racing last year and the bigger grid this year should just add to the fun
Because everything is second tier, third tier, full on pro-am, spec, bop, cost cap, freezed. The big feature attractions are missing.
