@jacenboy In a customer-based racing series, it absolutely is, otherwise the brands will spend themselves into killing a category - we've seen it time and again. I don't know if there's a cost-cap-oriented solution for factory categories, I'd hope there is, but we've seen factories are less committed to sports car racing than e.g. F1.BoP, especially when it's visibly wrong, just continually injects the "was this team/car the best on the day or was this won with sandbagging and politicking?".
