what are the rules of having a closed cockpit.. I can see it being an advantage in some respects but they must have to comply to the GT rules for cabin temp ie a good air con system which would be added weight

[skid solo]

I heard that the ACO are looking at all LMP1 cars being closed cockpit by 2010.

Isn't the aircon rule coming in in 2008?

Yes, all LMP1s must be closed cockpit by 2010 which I assume is why Peugeot have developed the car in this way. Henri P is lobbying the ACO to change their decision and go back to the old system of having both open and closed. Watch this space...
