To keep everythink sustainable, after homologation each LMH will have frozen specs up to 2024 (or 2025? can't remember exactly now). So none will be able to update their cars during the years or bring a basically fresh new car as porsche did in 2015 and 2017. Bop will be likely used to keep everyone in the same performance window.
Is hard speculate a LM timelap, if LMH will reveal to be slightly faster than 2017-2020 lmp2, is possible to expect a best absolute time in 3.24-3.25 maybe, with a 1 or 2s improvement by 2022 because of a better overall set-up and tires usage know how.
