While I get your point. When WEC became the Toyota-Cup in the 18/19 season (yes, there were a fine number of privateers, but that's like having one manufacturer and 10 Bertelli and Serderidis in Rally1. Numbers would be slightly higher than today, in reality the manufacturer wins every day. Which Toyota did, except for their DQ).
Anyway. It was Toyota - some privateers, Le Mans and a heap of identical 6hour races. Except for Sebring, where WEC in reality was a support race for the 12 hours of Sebring.
What did they do after that? They had a couple of 8 hour races, and a couple of 4 hour races. So there wouldn't be more driving to drive up costs for the following year.
What do we see in 2024? Qatar get a special length race because... money? Bahrain have an 8hr race. Le Mans in 24hrs and the rest? Identical 6hr races.
Again, I do get your point, but WEC is mainly a series consisting of loads of identical races and a couple of outliers.

I've come across some of these "Reaction videos" recently, featuring rallying. If people get to see WRC they are blown away.

It was in the calendar of 2024 published by Czech Auto Club like 2 weeks ago.
But maybe ACCR had it wrong and all of the reports had them as a source.
The world's favourite airline (according to their ads)
