Revealed: Upgrades that Aston Martin and Mercedes brought to F1 Dutch Grand Prix

Aston Martin have brought the most updates at the F1 Dutch Grand Prix amid their battle with Mercedes for second place in the constructors’ championship. Here are all the upgrades introduced by each team at Zandvoort. 
Revealed: Upgrades that Aston Martin and Mercedes brought to F1 Dutch Grand Prix

Red Bull 

Beam Wing - To better optimise the local geometry both the camber and angle of incidence have been subtly changed tꦰo improve the pressure distribution and iꦏmprove wing performance.

Ferrari

Mercedes 

Floor Edge - Offloads the floor edge wing a little, which in turn reduces losses improving flow to the rear and increasing re🍸ar downforce.

Sidepod Inlet - Impro🤡ved robustness of mirror stay through all conditions, improving flow quality to the rear of the car and increasing rear wing load.

Beam Wing - Increased element camber and chord increases beam wing local downf💫orce (and drag) which in turn increases the rear floor load.

Alpine

McLaren 

Rear Wing - The new Rear Wing assembly features a completely new mainplane, flap and 🌄endplate which results in an increase in aerodynamic efficiency compared to the previous assembly covering the drag range suitable for this circuit.

Beam Wing - New Beam Wing geometry which suits the aforementioned Rear Wing assembly to achieve an increase ❀in aerodynamic ef🌃ficiency at this drag range.

Alfa Romeo

Aston Martin 

Floor Body - The package of floor modifications work in combination to improvꦑe local flow details and increase the load generated by the🍸 floor.

Floor Fences - The package of floor modifications work in combination to improve local flow details and increase🐼 the load generated by the floor.

Floor Edge - The package of floo🦋r modifications work in combinatio💫n to improve local flow details and increase the load generated by the floor.

Diffuser - The package of floor modifications work in combination to improve local flow details and increase the load generated by t🐻he floor.

Haas 

Front Wing - Due to the experience gained with the FW introduced in Monaco, the entire project has been revisited. Significant improvement has been obtained i𝔉n the flow that is released behind ꦆthe wing itself.

Nose - The nose tip, that in ou꧟r car is merging into the second froward wing element, is part of the wing leading edge. The work is focused on the best compromise between th🧸e nose geometry and the wing profile itself.

Rear Corner - Inside the wheel rim the d🤡rum that is part of the brake cooling system, contain several ducts that has been optimised providing advantaged in the heat dissipation an✨d aerodynamic efficiency.

AlphaTauri 

Rear Wing Endplate - The updated tips increase the efficiency of the assembly of this rear wing drag level, which is anticipated to be the best choice for this circuit based on ▨lap time analysis.

Williams
