Regarding privateers, I'm agreeing with Hindy. They're saying they want the cars for Le Mans 2020. So that means they have to be ready for the end of summer 2019. That's not happening. The rules are only being submitted to the WMSC in October 2018 at best (but will probably slip to December 2018).
They're basically worried that there will be no Toyota next year and they'll lose even more income, so rushing it through. But that might just have to be the hit they take. I'm presuming the LMP1s will be grandfathered in for a couple of years as well, like we've seen before.
