I'm not saying that they shouldn't have given them incentives... I'm actually all for them. I was just pointing out that they were given, and they were pretty big incentives, as there were a LOT of unknowns going into it.
But now that the car is built, and people are starting to see the performance, and it is almost completely dominate, I think it's time to reign in some of those restrictions and make it a somewhat level playing field with the other cars.
It's NOT fun to watch the thing win race after race, especially with all the advantages it was given... that's just unfair to the other LMP1's.
Unfortunately, there are a ton of rules that have to be "interpreted" and "adjusted" for diesels... from displacement to the size of fuel restrictors etc, because they just aren't the same, so the same rules cannot apply. As long as this "rule conversion/adjustment" has to go on to try and make the gas and diesel specs result in the same performance, there will be people complaining.
It's going to be a bit of a roller coaster as they try and get things sorted... no different than the Corvettes and Aston Martins in GT1.
