And they appear to have a strange bump about two-thirds of the way along the side-pod, just in front of the periscope intakes. Aerodynamic? or is there something under there?

I know there was a rumor of Le Mans bodywork for the cars, maybe they have choosen to show up with the standard cars to see how they do first and then show up for the race with the aero package, not forcing their hand and since they have Porsche factory pilots in these cars, who's to say they won't make a push to be bothersome to the LMP1 cars.

Only the Essex car has a factory diriver.

So far I can only be sure that the louvres are different to the ones nomally used.
So much for the "radical" changes.

Fantastic pics, the anticipation is reaching a critical level!

minimangler · 31 May 2008, 11:32 (Ref:2215854)

Damn, those Porsches have hardly changed. They promised us radical revisions! The front looks smoother and a more continuous curve to me, but excpet that, I can't see much change.

olly83 · 31 May 2008, 11:48 (Ref:2215861)

Been looking at various photo galleries of the build up to the test day...Damn those closed coupes look good!!! If anyone has shots of the aston MArtins I'd love to see them. Seen one or two so far but I'd like some detail shots for the Rfactor skin I'm making

Personally feel that livery, although an all-time classic, has been done to death. When you see a barried-up Saxo in those colours it takes the edge off it IMO.

Indeed, i agree. It's starting to grow on me

Great stuff - thanks for the pics Bernard. BTW, does #34 look superb in that livery or what!

Too right, shame it's neck and neck with the Lucchini as first retirement on your prediction thread 'tho!

**Aysedasi** · 31 May 2008, 14:04 (Ref:2215935)

You need to borrow my specs! No votes at all for #34 - there are 3 for #24 - but that's still miles behind the Lucky Lucchini..........
