Also , what I find more interesting on that singer prototype is the roof .
Check out the channel in the roof that goes all the way through the rear window !!
I read the bbc article about it weeks ago and kinda skimmed the bit about the Perspex “hidden” spoiler , but a couple of weeks ago I was looking over a nascar Toyota and talking to it’s driver and asked about the North Carolina race I’d watched on tv that weekend (my first) where somebody span dropping from about 200 to 50 into pitlane and I saw the roof flapping .. I thought it was a driver roof hatch that open for a split second , but he then showed me the hidden flaps in the roof (and front hood iirc) and the clear spoiler than ran all along one side of the car ..
I hadn’t noticed it from 20 feet away , but the clear “wall” only traps air when the car is sideways , and directs it into the first flap to lift it , and from there there is a tunnel sending it to the second flap .
Basically they pop up like wind brakes to keep you planted if you spin .
Pretty ingenious .
After talking to the nascar guy I found the tab and looked again at the singer .
The roof and rear window have been subtlety yet drastically been revised .....
