And why change some good? We have years of Diesel blah blah in P1 and I only dont like the idea of having the same in P2.
And why is Porsche in LMP2, well would seem logical because their engineers looked at the rule book, saw that petrol cars weren't going to be competitive and went to LMP2. Why did we have diesel dominance last years, well because the rules favour diesels, so that's where the manufacturer support goes.

In my view you are blaming diesels for something which is the result of an unbalanced rule book. Of course you could take the easy route and say throw all the diesels out, making a balanced rule book is a bit more of a challenge and to me having lot's of different types of engines racing each other competitively is much more exciting.

Let me put it this way, in order of preference:

1 Race vs. production, diesel vs. petrol engines racing competitively
2 Just one type of engine
3 Race vs. production, diesel vs. petrol engines not balanced
