And we have to remember that because of dieselgate and trying to save face over it, programs were being looked at as far as ROI viability and success vs dollars/euros spent.
The Audi Sport program was axed because of diesel engine marketing being made redundant, going to a gasoline engine being redundant, and winning only two races a season each year since 2014, and LM only being among them once.
Same deal with Porsche. They said that LM was the only round that the WEC had as far as making it worth it as far as their time and money.
The ALMS in it's early years marketed itself better than the WEC has been.
