Fantastic to see BMW back.

As a Mercedes fan, it will be brilliant to see the old rivalries resumed once again.
With all these restrictions, what innovation can be had though?

Thats pretty standard I think....DTM cars always had a central cell.

LMP/GTP cars in the past are usually arranged as such also....cars like CLK-GTR in the past are also tub car with steel roll cage. I think the Bentley Speed 8 was one of the first with a full carbon cage....

Just when the E9X chassis are due to be replaced by the F30's. Perfect timing!

looks positively evil in flat black. Too bad they won't race like that.
