Chevy is running a hybrid LmDh/GTP in IMSA next year, so this really isn't a shocker. What is surprising is that Ford is not and is bring the stock Mustang to GT3 in 2024. Why not do a hybrid at this point? Makes no sense.
I think it is great for sports cars racing the ACO came to its senses here. No manufacturer wants a spending war in sports car prototype racing. Unified top class is the ONLY answer. Of course the second question is hybrid? It seems no manufacturer wants hybrids. Its all-electric or nothing and...

Why aren't the environmental damages related to lithium and cobalt mining held to the same standards as coal mining? Because the damage is in some far-away country and not West Virginia?
