Discussion - is there a design issue with LMP

There is a really interesting debate going on the the Monza thread about LMP design in the light of the three airborne incidents at Monza.

I think this needs its own thread as it is relavent to all prototypes in all series.

The 3 incident raise the following questions:

1) Is there a design issue leading to the cars becoming airborne when travelling sideways at high spead
2) If so how can it be solved - if at all
3) Is there not an issue at because in two of the three incidents the aerodynamics returned the car to the ground the right way
