The front is also home to a prominent splitter, and lateral flicks and vertical fins on the side sills. There is a large carbon fiber rear wing.
Underpinning the car is carbon fiber chassis with rear-wheel drive. A standard sequential six-speed gearbox is a structural element within the chassis. A pushrod rear suspension is system installed directly on the gearbox.
The car rides on magnesium wheels wrapped with Pirelli tires. Nineteen-inch tires are on the front and 20-inch tires are at the rear.
