The newer car designs (F2x/F3x) are so much stiffer than the models they replace. A stiffer(structure) car will handle better. Its just that simple. Better handling equals faster lap times.

But the e8x chassis is already quite torsionally rigid, a marginally stiffer chassis wouldn't benefit that much real world
It's also overcoming the wider track and wider tires, that's what's impressive.. Let alone less torque and power.
