The three F1 teams that have new upgrades for the Las Vegas Grand Prix

With two races to go, it’s not too surprising to see a lack of new upgrades intro💦🎃duced this weekend.
Teams are fully focused on next year🍎’s car, however, it’s not stoꦿpped some teams.
The low downforce nature of the Las Vegas ci﷽rcuit means teams will likely run Monza to Azerbaijan-spe𒅌c rear wings.
With there being long straights, teams will be looking t🍸o run skinny rear wings which produce less drag.
Outlined in the pre-weekend document, Alpine, McLaren and Aston Martin have been noted to have new parts 🐠for Vegas.
Alpine
Beam Wing - The rear beam wing slat has been removed and the lower rear wing profile has been reduced - To deal with the long straights of the Las Vegas Circuit – the beam wing chꦐange reduces levels of drag.
Front Wing - T🗹he front wing is a modified version of a previous spec with a further trim to the inboard segment - The front wing change is the most efficient way to balance the revised beam wing update, more of ಌwhich can be found above.
Rear corner - The rear drum upper flicks have been removed - The removal of the rear drum upper flick🧜s brings an efficient reduction in drag at the rear of the car for the ✨demands of this circuit.
McLaren
Beam Wing - Single element Beamwing - A single element Beam Wing has been designed, suitable for the specific circuit requirements, trading loading🐼 between Rear Wing and Beam Wing.
Rear Wing - Reprofiled Rear Wing Flap - In conjunction with the a🐲forementioned Beam Wing, a new reprofiled Rear Wing flap has been designed for this event to maximise efficiency.
Aston Martin
Front Wing - A front wing flap with shorter 🐻chord a💛nd reduced incidence compared to the standard version - This flap is to balance the car with lower rear wing levels when circuit characteristics require that setup.
Engine Cover - Additional bඣodywork internal trailing edge closing panel - The closing panel reduces the exit area of the bodywork to reduce air flowing through the car to reduce 𒁃cooling for low ambient temperatures.
