the diesel era shit wasn't "reading the rulebooks and coming up with crazy ideas" it was just the FIA in the pocket of VAG to promote their diesel shit by giving diesels a blatant advantage and making everything else unviable.

Daily reminder that Euros are fucking terrible at diesels despite inventing them. Just like the hamburger they needed that American touch to make them really great.

Dub-trips confirm. Now that VAG is out of the picture and Ferrari is back in sportscar racing, the FIA is "Ferrari International Assistance" once more.

you're just wrong. diesels had a 50% displacement advantage for years before Audi raced the R10.

Not in the ACO rules. Diesels had no real set tech regs prior to the 2006 rule changes when they went from LMP900/LMP675 to LMP1/LMP2. All it said before that was that alternate fuels were subject to ACO discretion which was why nobody ever bothered with it. The ACO only started to have actual regulations for diesels when they published the 2006 rules which coincided with the Audi R10.

Among these changes, the displacement discrepancy was only about +38% in favor of diesels and only applied to FI engines. There was no discrepancy for NA engines as both diesel and petrol engines were both limited to 6000cc. They didn't bother changing the NA displacement limit because the R10 wasn't NA.

When you examine the rules, it's pretty blatant that it was tailor made for the Audi diesel program and rendered petrol engines non-viable.

The ghost of Enzo sits at the head of the table of the FIA boardroom like Emperor Palpatine, and upon hearing of another team's strong performance, he responds slowly: "Balance Them" and interlocks his fingers, smiling.
