Of course, as someone already noted, when this car appears in the WTTT, from the very beginning there will be literally thousands of races clocked with FU cars. If you want to make A and probably B you’ll also need to FU. It is how the game is modeled and how FM monetizes the game.

If you don't like the idea of upgrades for this car, think of them as set up changes. There are always things that can be tweaked to improve speed.

As for pinnacle, on any given Sunday, an F1 car is likely the pinnacle of motorsports, but teams are constantly working and bringing upgrades to the cars. Porsche even said they made this the Most 919 they could make it, but not necessarily the absolute ideal car they could make to set the Nördschleife record.
