Do we have any hints as to what these might look like?
- I assume like fenders on a bike for example?
  
  They already have those stupid looking things over the front wheels, might as well put them back over the back too.
  Hell by 2030 it’ll just be LMPH3. I shall miss open wheel racing.
- Similar to Formula E Gen 1 I reakon

If it allows us racing in the rain instead of red flagged races or that two-lap circus at Spa in 2021, I’m all for it!
- With Spa it was not just the spray, but also a lot of standing water. So it will help, but not in all cases.

exciting, but we have to keep in mind that it won't completely eliminate spray as the floor and diffuser also kick up some

I'm excited to see what they came up with. It's a very good solution.
