Just found out from a friend that works at Porsche Cars North America (senior manager in marketing, so I guess he knows), the fan is used for cooling the electronics bay that is located between the cockpit and engine bay....LOTS of electronics in a hybrid. I really don't think it was built "just because they could", since Porsche AG calls it the 918 RSR Racing Laboratory. Sounds like they will enter it in some second tier races to work the bugs out of the technology. I think what we are seeing is the shape of racing in the future, and once again, Porsche is breaking the ground.
