Thanks Mike! Hard to make out too much but (would I dare otherwise?) I take your points on the nose/front fender design well. Not shockingly different but I am still looking forward to seeing it more completely.

At the risk of appearing rather stupid but that's not something new for me, where are the pics ?
Edit: Nevermind, a refresh revealed the goods. Must have been a browser cache issue.

Its hard to tell much of anything from those 3 shots. My bi-fucles are focking up I guess. 
But yes, thank you for sharing!!

To me it looks like the side is open, and it's very F1 inspired!, kinda like the WR2008!

Actually to me it looks like the sidepods go way down as they reach the rear fender, curved from the top rather than from the bottom as on the WR.

I agree, extreely low sidepods and very low aft of the bodywork.
Looks kinda sexy, surely we havent seen the naughty bits yet..

Thats a nice looking little car , I can only imagine that the issue is with the chassis , ar at least trying to marry the engine & chassis together , cuz Its a great engine too .

So it's another "F1-nose"? I was hoping the car would retain the nose design from the P2 car. Purely from aesthetics point of view, it was not so akward looking than e.g. Pug or ee1. Like some kind of half-car, half-lizard, especially with the green Patron livery. 
How many days they're testing? Or is it already over?

I am certainly not real surprised, as I was told I would be...
But let's wait and see what happens
