The driver is seated at the back slingshot style for control authority and there's four-wheel steering to insure it's never driving sideways, even a little bit.

I think a good starting point would be to read the race rules, read about the cars that have won the race over the last few decades, perhaps talk to some solar team members, maybe have a chat with someone who has done the aero for these cars, and perhaps read
this book.
