Porsche felt they were at a disadvantage with the current restrictions and petitioned the powers that be to allow them to make these two changes to help level the playing field. It was only once these are approved and the rules are modified that the manufacturers are able to make such big adjustments.
One would think, though, that the manufacturers develop and test these new parts before petitioning the powers that be to approve them, right?
