I don't think most fans want to see the top class restricted to 3:30 at LM. The ACO have been pushing for it since at least 2007.

Whatever the reason, or the ACO making the Hypercars that much slower by default by making them so overweight, it's caused a stack up that might even see GTE nerfed. Which GTE got aero and power boost because GT3 got GT1 influenced aero on them a few years back.

Granted, making the LMP1/LMH cars so portly will reduce costs by default, but wanna know what would've done that too? Reducing the reliance on hybrid systems for power, and reducing their urge to kiss up to OEMs in exchange for cash.
