Right, the front is looking like deformed and wheels seems to have different
camber.

It's rear downforce for them.  Those are basically old Nascar cars
from the prior spec.  They are particular in inspection about how far
they can have the rear spoiler stick up in the air as a larger
spoiler or larger angle gives them an unfair advantage.  If you look
at the bodies closely, they've done some interesting things.  The
front of the car isn't symmetrical so they can get more front downforce.
