aerodynamic simulation, created in West Bohemia University - First simulation, made to find the main problem areas, wich was mainly the windschield, the back part of the car and wheels. After that, the proposal got corrected to improve the aerodynamics. The windschiled got bigger and its schape changed a little, I also changed the back part and added a tiny spoiler and I also adjusted the fenders. These adjustments radically improved the aerodynamics, but the design of the car remains almost the same.
