Beautiful car and admittedly, I likey...but for a road car, they really don't need to follow the exhaust constraints imposed on the design of their F1 car.

The two smaller pipes are connected to the main exhaust pipe. Whether or not they are actually connected to the wastegates, it is hard to tell. They are not necessarily "fake." The Project One uses the power unit from the 2015 W06 F1 car, which under FIA regulations in that year was mandated to have the wastegate pipe integrated into the main exhaust pipe. The integration of the wastegate pipe into the main exhaust pipe had a silencing effect on the exhaust noise from 2015 F1 cars, so this may just be a solution for legality since this is a road-going car after all.
