IndyCar earlier this week released a refined render of its proposed new 2018 car, featuring the universal aerodynamic bodywork kit, and has now released a clearer side shot as well as an overhead render.
The renders are only a concept at this stage and require further work before a final design is settled upon.
The universal kit will attach to the Dallara IR-12 chassis and be used by all competitors in 2018.The aim of the new kit is to create a bolder, more traditional-looking Indy car that produces most of its downforce from underneath to promote more passing opportunities, while at the same time adding numerous safety enhancements.
Scale model testing of the universal kit is ongoing, with the first on-track car testing expected by mid-summer. INDYCAR will continue providing updates throughout the process.
