Siemens Inova Steering & Hub supports
Just like the hub supports, the main goal with the design of the steering supports is to reduce
their weight. During the design of GP17, we created lightweight but also rigid supports, capable of handling circuits with more deteriorated surfaces. Since then we have used a similar design (with only slight changes) for the following prototypes. In GP17 and GP19, these supports were very close to the vehicle’s structure, so it was necessary to thin out the bulkheads in certain areas that suffered interference from the steering system.

On the other hand, GP21 will no longer have this problem: as the structure is tighter at the front,
