Elio wrote, and I completely believe, that the older P3 and P2 design fairings were one of the aerodynamically dirtiest areas on the vehicle, if not the worst. Also P2/P3 had the coils and shocks between body and wheel fairing, generating more drag than the smaller items that are now in the open. Also the back end has more squared off vertical corners, for better separation.
