The
Lister's rear wing endplates follow the lead started by Audi and Courage
last year. |
![]() |
At
the Le Mans test days the 2004 the Lister LMP appeared with a narrow rear
wing (180 cm maximum) as part of the equivalency rules for '03 LMP/LMGTP900
to '04 LMP 1 & 2. |
Note
the reduction in span and the removal of the deep endplate. |
At
Le Mans '04 the deep endplate reappeared. Lister utilized the Audi
wing to endplate mounting solution but added a twist with how they mounted
the bottom of the endplate to rear bodywork. |
The
elements anchoring the bottom of the endplate were clearly wing shaped.
Devices having a wing profile are only regulated by being denied forward
of the front wheel centerline and aft and below the rear wheel centerline. |
