I don't see this as a surprise , the hand writing was on the wall when Audi pulled out of WEC and went to FE . Now Porsche and Toyota are spending stupid amounts of money to race each other . Electric/hybrid cars are the future so why not jump into a fairly new race series and prove what you can do ?
Also Porsche has stated they are stepping up their game in GT racing so maybe we'll see 3 or 4 factory GT3's in various series . Car technology is now similar to computers , always changing and a new evolution every 6 months . The old days are in the rearview mirror get used to it .
