I think that the high speed nature of the circuit means that the hybrid effect is negated. Circuits where HEM will have the most effect (IMO) are those that are traditionally RWD favoured - e.g accelerating from low speed corners. This would be places such as the hairpin at Knockhill or Croft.
In principle I tend to agree with you but wouldn't this effect/advantage be nullified slightly as the electrical boost isn't operational below a certain speed and when traction is limited?
