DJR Team Penske's shock absorber valving is a core part of their competitive advantage -- right? Likewise Erebus and every other competitive team who all have their own custom valving.
If they suddenly have to use shock absorbers valved to 888's preferences, how can that be a good thing for the category?
Recall that incumbent Bridgestone runners DID have a advantage over former Dunlop when the Bridgestones were made the control tyre. The Bridgestone runners had a knowledge base, while those who ran Dunlops or Yokohamas before had no data at all and were disavantaged.
Therefore it is IMO, crucial that an independent supplier such as MCA Suspension or Multimatic is chosen.

A control radiator or oil cooler? That's fine.
Shock absorbers however are a performance sensitive component...
