So the ACO wants less tire changes, but the smaller fuel tanks will bring the cars into the pits more often. They had better not mandate spec tires for 2010 or ever do that.

In LMP1, why are the twin-turbocharged diesels given more displacement (3.7 liters) than 2.0 liter single tubo'd six cylinders and 3.4 liter normally aspirated engines?

In contrast, in the 2011 LMP2 class, both series production 8 cylinder diesels have the same 4.0 liter displacement as 2010 GT2 4.0 liter engines.

Why are the diesels again given more displacement in LMP1 versus turbocharged LMP1 engines?



I hope the IndyCar Series gets their engine/chassis formula right for the 2011 season.
