Lotus E21 Renault

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

Forza, please, if you know you have 20 pictures to post, can you at least put them in the non-zoomed in version from Imgur (especially if the pic shows the same thing but with the camera slightly moved), because in my case it simply freezes out my PC and choaks the Internet connection when it is loading them. Thanks.

From the article Boullier says that they're bringing some upgrades to Malaysia. Should be interesting.

I cleaned up the image a bit, made it a bit larger and easier to see. The splitter tube is clearly hollow. Right click for full resolution.

Yes but is could be connected to the vertical splitter's hole which is used for cooling.
