Also, there's a claim that the TS050 is overweight per the regs. I doubt that they lost weight on the engine end just due to the added parts associated with a turbocharged engine.

So, you're just guessing or there's an unheard of rumor? The batteries are probably lighter than the capacitor. Iirc the same thing was said about the 040 being overweight. That too, was false.
On the r18, this aero package is extremely ugly. But hopefully for Audi, it works.
