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.

Exactly.
Fernando Alonso is the best pay-to-drive driver in F1 with the biggest amount of money behind him.

It could be a reflection of the cooling slot under the nose. I sure slots in that part of the wing are illegal.

edit: It's just the slot between the joined camera(one piece) and the main plane of the wing. Extra downforce and very clever.

No - it's like Crucial said. The camera winglets placed together, and above the central front wing section.
