In the past 2 decades, no privateer has won Le Mans. Even further back than that it was Joest who was basically Porsche's factory team. And before that (1995) was the McLaren F1 GTR.

I see criticism of factory or manufacturer bias/preference and their involvement. But looking back over the recent history of the race, no one but manufacturers have won. Will that change? Will they see a golden opportunity next year with only Toyota? I would bet some are just waiting to jump in. But as in the past with exodus of manufacturer teams, more will just take their place in short time.
