And it must be admitted, the specialists succeeded in this.
The front has a fairly large hole forair that enters through proportional air ducts, which are located next to the front fenders. In the cavity of the air intakes, you can see elegant aerodynamic wings, due to which the downforce of the car is increased and drag is minimized. Interestingly, the body is made of aluminum alloys, which are commonly used in the aerospace industry.
