Looks like the frt inlet is almost full size between the fender and foot box/nose cone. A new winglet design between the frt fender and tub, air inlet aft of the door (cockpit air? engine compartment cooling?). Much lower rear deck height (half shaft tunnel?) with what looks like possibly air exiting the sidepod on both sides of the rear fender pontoon. It also looks as if the rear of the fender (wheel tub) is louvered.

What's the triangle in front of the rear wheel? It's probably just a reflection in the rendering and my eyes playing tricks a bit!

Did the Lola always have blisters on the greenhouse of the cockpit?

I do not think it is a reflection. It looks to be an air outlet of some sorts from the sidepod, with the fender pontoon angling in.

The Drayson Lola seems to have them, http://www.draysonracing.com/images/2009/

But they are not apparent to me on Dyson's

Lola LMP1's have vents that exit out infront of the rear wheels, the LMP2s have the vent arranged so that it takes in air for the rear brakes and for rear aero(a la Audi R15, though the Lola LMP 675 cars used a similar duct first).

I guess the rear louvres which replace the mesh will be subject to the same damage as those above the front wheels, which means the pitlane officials will have twice as much fun ordering teams to replace them when damaged. I wonder if any of the manufacturers have designed a quick release/replace mechanism for 2010.

Yes, quite amazing that! I used deutz fasteners on all access panels and quick replacement parts on my cars for years.

Beats me why they dont press them outta titanium or stainless , and it cant be weight cuz that much stainless wouldnt be that heavy ..... be a hell of a lot more robust than carbon fibre , without the possibility of getting repremanded .

Makes sense to me. You would have thought it possible to attach some sort of frame to the carbon into which a a louvre could be placed with a snap shut clip mechanism. Simples (in theory)!

The car looks really close to the B08/60, the lines looks more soft and there are a new exhaust like pre-2009 F1 exhausts. Probbly mostly of changes are in the rear zone in consecuence of the new 2011 rules
