No.	Updated component	Primary reason for update	Geometric differences	Description
1	Rear Wing	Performance - Flow Conditioning	Endplate modification	A small revision to the rear wing endplate resulting in improved flow conditioning and aerodynamic characteristics across the full operating range.
2	Floor Body	Performance – Local Load	New floor and board	A new floor and board featuring a modified base shape and furniture, resulting in an improvement in flow conditioning and local load generated across all conditions.
3	Front Corner	Performance - Flow Conditioning	Revised Front Corner Furniture	A small modification to the front corner furniture resulting in an improvement in flow conditioning around the front tyre and resultant aerodynamic performance.
4	Front Corner	Circuit specific - Cooling Range	Increased Brake Cooling Exit	To meet the increased brake cooling demands of this circuit, a larger front brake cooling exit has been designed aiming at minimising the detrimental impact on aerodynamic performance.
5	Rear Corner	Performance – Local Load	Revised Rear Corner Furniture	An update to the rear corner furniture, featuring a revised winglet arrangement aiming at an efficient increase of aerodynamic load.

Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team

No.	Updated component	Primary reason for update	Geometric differences	Description
1	Rear Wing	Circuit specific - Drag Range	Additional rear wing winglet added on centreline	The new winglet increases local wing chord and camber increasing local downforce and drag at a ratio appropriate for Budapest L/D.
2	Coke/Engine Cover	Cooling Range	Wider bodywork rear exit Increased exit size to achieve adequate mass flow through the sidepods to ensure we have adequate cooling for this track.
3	Tail	Performance - Local Load	Tail winglet merged into rear wing brace. Running the tail winglet into the rear wing brace increases local downforce and drag at a ratio appropriate for Budapest L/D.

No.	Updated component	Primary reason for update	Geometric differences	Description
1	Rear Wing	Performance - Local Load	Revised pylon profiles	By exploiting the permitted rear wing pylon geometry, the camber of the pylons has been increased to extract a little more load and maintain, even enhance the flow stability.
2	Floor	Performance - Local Load	Revised diffuser geometry	Having observed some competitor designs, the floor diffuser geometry has gained surface area adjacent to the rear impact structure offering a local gain in load.
3	Rear Wing	Performance - Local Load	Revised flap element geometry	Following iterations of the rear wing design, a revised flap pairing has become available for the Hungarian GP offering more load from revised camber and chord geometries. This change is accompanied by a minor revised to the lower brace (wing) geometry as part of the new design.

SCUDERIA FERRARI HP

No.	Updated component	Primary reason for update	Geometric differences	Description
1	Rear Wing	Performance - Local Load	New flaps design with additional trailing edge devices, re-shaped endplate top inboard volume, new pillars. Also, an optional winglet cascade in the SM fairing volume will be available	Part of the standard development cycle, this further iteration of rear wing has been focused on increasing load in a robust way. The additional
2	Rear Wing Endplate			winglet cascade is meant to increase rear downforce at the expense of aerodynamic efficiency, and is optional.

No.	Updated component	Primary reason for update	Geometric differences	Description
1	Rear Wing	Circuit specific - Drag Range	A new RW assembly configuration, with a change to the rear wing flap components.	To suit the demands of the Hungaroring circuit, we have introduced an optional rear wing flap geometry which offers an increase in downforce across the rear of the car.
2	Floor Body	Circuit specific - Drag Range	A new Floor Bodywork configuration with the introduction of new geometry on the outboard Floor Winglet.	A further circuit specific change, which modifies the aerodynamic loading on the outboard floor body the car.

No.	Updated component	Primary reason for update	Geometric differences	Description
1	Roll Hoop	Performance – Flow Conditioning	Addition of Roll Hoop Winglets	The roll hoop introduced at the previous event creates additional freedom in that area. These winglets improve the quality of the airflow reaching the rear of the car.
2	Rear Wing	Performance – Local Load	Updated SM pod geometry and wing auxiliary components	A combination of changes to the SM pod and to the to be generated by the rear wing, which is well suited to the circuit characteristics.
3	Cooling Louvres	Circuit specific - Cooling Range	Additional options of bodywork cooling louvres	Opening the louvres on the bodywork allows more airflow through the radiators, increasing engine cooling and thus increasing the range of operating conditions.

Aston Martin Aramco F1 Team

No.	Updated component	Primary reason for update	Geometric differences	Description
1	Front Wing	Performance - Local Load	Revised front view and planview with chord redistribution. The front wing, endplate and nose are a package to improve the performance of the front end of the car in combination with the other car updates.
2	Front Wing Endplate	Performance - Local Load	Updated body, diveplane and foot.
3	Nose	Performance - Local Load	Longer, thinner nose.
4	Front Corner	Performance - Local Load	Revised lip and longer rear deflector.	The new front brake duct external elements work alongside the new front wing to manage flow around the front wheels.
5	Floor Body	Performance - Local Load	Changes to all of the permitted surfaces of the floor. All floor changes are developed as a package to increase the load on the floor and therefore improve the car performance.
6	Floor Fences	Performance - Local Load	Updated floor leading edge vanes.
7	Floor Edge	Performance - Local Load	The foot/board and the area in front of the rear tyre have been modified.
8	Diffuser	Performance - Local Load	Changes to the main diffuser, fences and winglet.

No.	Updated component	Primary reason for update	Geometric differences	Description
9	Sidepod Inlet	Performance - Local Load	Inlet shape revised in line with the bodywork package. The bodywork package has evolved to improve the feed to the rear of the car and complement the changes to the floor geometry.
10	Coke/Engine Cover	Performance - Local Load	Relative subtle changes to the shape of the bodywork
11	Cooling Louvres	Performance - Local Load	Conceptually similar cooling panels.	The louvres provide the usual range of options to allow the setup of the cooling system for optimum performance depending on conditions.
12	Rear Suspension	Performance - Local Load	Small changes to the leg positions and external fairings. The rear suspension and rear brake ducts modifications were developed with each other and the changes to the rear of the floor.
13	Rear Corner	Performance - Local Load	Subtle changes to the inlet, exit and vanes.
14	Rear Wing	Performance - Local Load	Chord is redistributed between the three elements, winglets added to the TE of the flap. The three components of the rear wing increase CM load while reducing SM drag, and are aligned with other changes to the rear of the car.
15	Beam Wing	Performance - Local Load	Change in twist distribution of the rear wing brace.
16	Rear Wing Endplate	Performance - Local Load	All the surfaces have been revised.
