Why does this prototype diversity (LMP2's and enhanced DP's) suddenly need to be addressed immediately in the USCC when it (hybrid versus gas-powered LMP1's) has existed in Europe for many years now?
Certain tracks benefit certain cars. For example, it was no secret that in Grand-Am Daytona was a Porsche track and Lime Rock was a circuit that favored the Pratt & Miller Pontiacs and Camaros. That's just the way it is. It will be interesting to see which cars excel at which circuits next year.

I don't know why this has to be repeated: Audi doesn't win time and again because the rules favor them. They win because they're the best team with the best engineering and the best equipment. Having a car that is a world beater is REWARDED in WEC.
