I expected the R15 to have an enclosed cockpit, thought that was a new rule?

Default I would think somewhere in Europe Bob. They have been very secretive about the new R15 until today.

To have all three racers on one track at the same time especially a DTM A4 would leave me to believe Europe.

No they went with the open cockpit design. We have known about this for several months now.

Default The car is a bit different since the last time you drove it

I replaced the front sway (from H-sway back to stock), Alcon BBK and RE-11s. Should be a lot of fun next month. . .
