There's been a few articles suggesting this will be the configuration of the 2017 GTE cars.
Also repeated today on Radio Le Mans in the light of the 2015/2016 RSR being so comprehensively outgunned by the other manufacturers.
Should the FIA approve such a car for the WEC without - as is suggested - there being a similarly configured road car?
On the one hand I think they should have to build the road going versions - it's not as if the space in the rear of the cabin of a GT3 serves any purpose - so it would be no big deal and they'd have no problem selling them.
On the otherhand GTE cars are so far removed from the road cars whose looks they loosely share that I wonder if it really matters.
