Similarly as with the racer, the hood, wings and front guard totally connected as one body piece. An upgraded underbody and back diffuser element, while race-inferred NACA admissions along the edges improve cooling.
Further augmentations incorporate an air scoop and diverter configuration sitting over the motor cover to support cooling for the V10. Sitting on that get together is a ‘shark balance’ plan to improve yaw security in quick cornering while likewise fixing wind current to the back wing.
The wing itself, single opened with a twofold aerofoil, is physically movable to change the air equilibrium of the vehicle by up to 13 percent, claims Lamborghini.
