That it will be dressing up as a poor imitation of the LM55 does sound on the money, but with those fenders I have to say what could go wrong

Might end up being the most important car in the class because everything will have to be BoP'd down to it.

Indeed it is, but does it seem like the nose sticks out in front of the headlights quite a bit? Maybe it isn't as bad as the angle looks, and I'm sure the diffuser will tie it all together.

Really excited to see this not just because it's the first DPi, but it is also the first viewing of the Riley chassis - altered as it may be.

Honestly, I'm seeing more than a bit of this year's R18 in there, with the apparent winglets and protruding high nose.

Edit - John Doonham (Dunhamm?) is on MWM right now.

I'm noticing there's a distinct piece of bodywork connecting the nose to the fender(look closely, you can see the crease in the covering), so I'm expecting it will be VERY distinct from the P3 shape that some are fearing.

Of course, that doesn't mean it will look any better, but we'll just have to wait and see.

Looks like it might have some relative similarities to the Furia concept...

If it looks like the Furia it'll be the best looking prototype ever. But the man who designed that and the current mans range is now working for Tesla I think. Hope he had some good junior staff!

So we know it will be called the RT24P, and that it will first test (in the next two weeks) with Riley's WEC bodywork and the 2.0L turbo before the DPi body goes back on for the public tests in December.

As long as it doesn't have the old Mazda3's "cookie smile" front end, I'll be happy.

It wasn't on the stage but on the other side of the room. The camera panned over, but only showed the roof and the back of the people standing around the car.

Pics are out now, though, and wow....
