| 1 | Coke/Engine Cover | Reliability | Revision to central exit aspect ratio Subtle changes to reduce the losses incurred by the upper and lower rear wings for more cooling. |  |
| 2 | Rear corner | Reliability | Enlarged exit duct with blanking options | In preparation for upcoming races, a larger exit duct has been prepared with scope to blank primarily for Suzuka |
| 3 | Rear Suspension | Performance - Local Load | Mild revision to lower wishbone shroud and fairing into the rear wheel bodywork. | Gap between races allowed a revised wishbone shroud better aligned to the local flow conditions to be applied with attendant fairing into the brake duct assembly. |

| 1 | Front Wing Flap | Performance – Local Load | The rearward most element of the front wing has an longer chord length and features a more pronounced ‘dip’ in its profile. The details of the connection to the | The updated flap geometry produces more local load, which wing. The interaction of the subsequent flow with the front suspension and brake duct furniture is different, which leads |
| 2 | Front Wing Endplate | Performance – Flow Conditioning | The new endplate has a reprofiled lower rear edge and a slightly modified connection to the front wing flap. | Working in conjunction with the new flap, the revisions to the endplate modify the flow leaving the front wing assembly and improve its interaction with the downstream aero devices. |

| No. | Updated component | Primary reason for update | Geometric differences | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 1 | Floor Body | Performance - Local Load | Changes to several areas of the floor: floor fence, outboard floor and diffuser. | All changes together are aiming to have better flow field entering the underfloor and improving flow quality all along the floor. |
| 2 | Rear Wing | Performance - Local Load | Changes to main plane. | Changes to the main plane geometry to increase overall efficiency and improved cleanliness of the rear wing assembly. |
| 3 | Beam Wing | Performance - Local Load | Adding an upper element to the already existing beam wing main plane. | The addition of the forward element leads to an efficient load increase as well as a positive response on characteristics. |
