WEC's race organisers sure is trying hard to hold back Toyota from winning this years 24 hours of Le Mans, suddenly changing BoP just 9 days before the race starts on June 10th, and that's done without all of these race teams consent because apparently the organisers can do almost whatever they want without discussing with all these teams, the original time they were going to do this BoP change is 2 races after the 6 hour of Spa in Belgium and not right before 24 hour of Le Mans, and of course the one that got slapped with weight penalties the hardest is Toyota, having to carry an extra 37 kg, followed by Ferrari at 24 kg, Cadillac at 11 kg and Porsche at just 3 kg. Peugeot, Glickenhaus and Vanwall didn't receive any weight penalties because their cars are already so painfully slow in all parts of a track, especially Glickenhaus and Vanwall, seeing the 2 of them getting harassed by LMP2 cars even when their tires are already up to operating temperature are always amusing sights 🤣. The 2 Ferraris qualified 1st and 2nd, followed by 1 Toyota in 3rd, 1 Porsche in 4th and the other Toyota in 5th.
After the reading this article, it seems like the sudden BoP change is probably because certain team(s) did some bitchin' to the organisers behind everyone else's backs, I wouldn't be surprised if Porsche is the one or part of the one that complained to the organisers, because they have a long history of complaining to the race organisers and subsequently the organisers will give Porsche exactly what they want, like a parent spoiling a bratty child.
