I'm sure its nothing more than penske cheatin.....but seriosly....no big deal?... or would there be a reason for that?.....are those intakes more aero or cooling... or both?
There are 2 water radiators in the right side, Oil Cooler in the left. No big deal, and makes it easier to service the on-board N20 and Traction Control units.
On the Champcar they adjusted the size per cooling requirements. I assume something similar for Indycars.

Last season it got out that Penske was making some improvements in the radiator area. They were covering up that area of the car with umbrellas when Helio pitted with an issue at Mid Ohio.

I know in Champ Car (Lola and Reynard, not sure about Panoz) they used duct tape to adjust the sidepod intake size.
You guys probably didn't notice this but I did and I had to correct it.

Review my hairpin pics, Stanton Barrett's starboard sidepod intake has tape instead of block off plates.
Wilson, Viso, Tagliani, and a few others have bigger block off plates that have holes for the upper suspension wishbone to go through. Tagliani also has tape over part of the block off plate on his starboard sidepod.
Here's a video I made of various race cars at Long Beach. You can compare the sounds of the different race cars.
