Exactly how the BoP is calculated has not been revealed by WEC rulemakers the FIA and the Automobile Club, but the system is known to have changed more than once over the course of the season.

The America manufacturer announced on Thursday that the race programme with a new LMDh developed together with ORECA will be operated by Ford Racing rather than in partnership with an independent team.

Mark Rushbrook, global director of Ford Racing, said: “Breaking from the traditional model of many manufacturers – and often our own model in the past – Ford Racing will oversee and manage every aspect of our prototype sportscar racing project.

“We are not looking outside our walls to find who can run a programme for us; we are looking within Ford Racing to build our programmes infused with our passion.

It will utilise all the global resources under the Ford Racing banner, including its US facilities in Dearborn, Michigan and Charlotte, North Carolina.

Red Bull Ford Powertrains, which is developing the new Ford-badged Formula 1 engine that will come on stream next season, was also name checked.

Evo Tale ovo boldovano o tome sam ti pričao celo vreme. Ne mora tim biti striktno fabrički da bi bio fabrički.

To je kao kada Mitsubishi uzme neki Renaultov model, stavi svoju oznaku na njega i malo ga nasminka i kaze "e ovo je novi Mitsubishi" iako na njemu nema ni "M" od Mitsubishija.

Tako je i sa Fordom u zadnje vreme. Nekada su imali prave fabricke timove koje su sami osnovali i vodili, a danas samo placaju privatnike da stave svoju znacku...

Novi biznis model. Nije to samo sa Fordom. Jer svi oni gledaju kako im je najisplativije. Evo Tojota je probala sa striktno fabričkim timom u f1 pa je prošla ko bosa po trnju. I dalje su im posledice da ne znaju kad će se vratiti. Dok su neke druge fabrike pod ovim modelom (u saradnji sa privatnim timom) osvojili titule u F1.

Ok, novi biznis model, ali to ne znaci da postaju fabricki timovi zato sto su promenili biznis model.

I dalje ima gomila timova koje su fabrike same osnovale i vode, tipa Ferrari i Mercedes u F1, Toyota i Hyundai u WRC i slicni. A to sto je neko izabrao laksi put tako sto je platio privatniku da koristi njegove aute ne znaci da je fabricki tim kao oni timovi koje fabrika jeste osnovala i vodi.

ode navodno zbog BOP-a

ali verovatno i zbog lošije prodaje automobila.

Porsche sales are down in the face of the introduction of import tariffs in the US and falling demand in China.
