We already know that 2018 is the year of the privateer overhaul. This was also known by the teams interested. Ginetta I think was the one who said their plans for 2018 were taking shape before Audi left. In GTE-PRO, the factory teams can afford to pay for their world championship status. And that's all there is in the class anyway.
