Saka iyo 155 Silverstone, ine mwero homologation yakakosha, asi ine mamwe anopokana aerodynamic matipi. Chekutanga chaive chiparadzi chayo chekumberi chaigona kuiswa munzvimbo mbiri, imwe yadzo inokwanisa kugadzira kusimudza kwakashata.
Rechipiri rakanga riri bapiro rayo rokumashure. Zvinoitika kuti bapiro rekumashure iri raive neamwe matsigiro maviri (akange akaiswa mukamuri yekutakura), achiibvumira kuti ive munzvimbo yepamusoro uye kuti varidzi vaigona kuisimudza gare gare, kana zvichidikanwa.
