Lotus E20 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.

If I had to bet my money, I'd bet on crocodile nose. From what we've seen the monocoque is pretty high ahead of the driver's seat.

I think with the exception of Ferrari the crocodile noses reflect more a financial desire to recycle last year's tub designs than a conscious design choice, remember this is why the regs were adjusted to allow this at the bulkhead. I don't know what Ferrari's excuse is.

Therefore, crocodile nose for Lotus I reckon.

Looks like a stepped nose to me!
