Historically the ACO makes token pre-race BOP adjustments. Last year the Porsche was allowed to remove 8kg before the race.... The year before that, the Ferrari and the Ford were slapped with similarly inconsequential negative adjustments.

ACO can use the performance of the GTE-Am Porsches which are the same weight, but a 0.4mm smaller restrictor (29.9mm), as a benchmark for over adjustment. I think the Porsche will see a restrictor cut to 30.1mm which is the specification they were given last year.

They may also get an inconsequential weight penalty of 10kg or so.
