| No. | Updated component | Primary reason for update | Geometric differences | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Front Wing | Circuit specific - Balance Range | Reduced camber and chord front wing flap elements | Lower load front wing flap elements with reduced chord length and curvature (camber) to balance the expected rear wing level of the Las Vegas circuit. |
| 2 | Floor Fences | Performance - Flow Conditioning | Revised forward floor fence leading edge detail of the second fence from the chassis | By elevating the upper edge of the second (inside to out) forward floor fence, a small vortex can be shed to benefit the floor edge downstream. |

| No. | Updated component | Primary reason for update | Geometric differences | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Front Wing | Circuit specific - Balance Range | Lower Downforce Front Wing Flap design and trims | The depowered front wing flap provides the required aero balance range associated to the optimum downforce level anticipated for Las Vegas. Different trims are available, to allow modulation |
| 2 | Floor Fences | Performance - Flow Conditioning | Redistribution of fences profiles and camber Not event specific, this update features reworked front floor fences targeting an improvement of the losses travelling downstream. The front floor body volume has subsequently reoptimized, together with the floor edge loading and vortex shedding into the diffuser. | |
| 3 | Floor Body | Performance - Flow Conditioning | Reshaped front volume / expansion | |
| 4 | Floor Edge | Performance - Flow Conditioning | Reshaped floor edge |

| No. | Updated component | Primary reason for update | Geometric differences | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Front Wing | Circuit specific - Balance Range | New Front Wing Flap | The Front Wing Flap has been redesigned to extend the available aerobalance range, which could be a requirement given the specific circuit layout. |

| No. | Updated component | Primary reason for update | Geometric differences | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Front Wing | Circuit specific - Balance Range | A new front wing flap with less incidence and a reduction in mid-span chord. | The flap is less loaded than the other version hence reducing overall wing load to balance the car with reduced rear wing levels. |

| No. | Updated component | Primary reason for update | Geometric differences | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Coke/Engine Cover | Performance - Flow Conditioning | The ramp down behind the sidepods has been lowered. Lowering the top deck of the bodywork improves the high-energy flow brought to the rear of the car. | |
| 2 | Rear Suspension | Other - Local flow alignment | Suspension leg orientations have been modified. Suspension profiles have been realigned to the flow direction of the updated engine cover. | |
| 3 | Rear Corner | Performance - Local Load | The geometry of the winglets on the rear corner has been updated. Winglet profiles are modified to improve flow attachment and increase generated load. | |
| 4 | Mirror | Circuit specific - Drag Range | A modification to the housing of the mirrors run at Monza. | The circuit requires a low-downforce configuration, so the Monza mirrors make a re-appearance with a further housing modification to clean up the flow. |
