As stated with SoD, it would be stupid for them to waste the money on a chassis then change to a different one the following year instead of just doing the upgrade.

If they both had gotten standard Dallara's it would be different.

If memory helps, ESM has a 2 years exclusive deal for the nissan package.
Anyway, I'm not cynical, just realistic as explained by someone else, current wec lmp2 vs. cadillacs is not so much different from 2014-2015 lmp2 vs. dp era. Now, not only wec lmp2 lack of torque, but aren't even lighter than dpi.

Pole positions don't show the real values in field... last year mazdas marked some poles too, and we know how it ended
