Which of the following statements about the legality of the car below is true? + track width = 2500mm + car track = 1700mm + cone height = 280mm + rear wing height = 2100mm + roll hoop height = 2200mm Image © TU Munich

Computer rendering of a Formula Student-style open-wheel race car viewed nearly head-on from slightly above on a dark surface. The car has a broad, multi-element front wing with projecting end structures, a central nose/cockpit, a tall roll structure and a high rear wing behind the cockpit. Six orange-and-white traffic cones surround the car: two toward the top/background, two at intermediate left/right positions and two directly in front of or beneath the wing's outer ends. A grey annotation box with red text 'Slot for cones ;)' has white arrows pointing to recesses/slots in the front-wing end structures near the two nearest cones. No physical dimensions are printed in the image.
