Ferrari have brought three upgrades to the F1 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.

The tweaks, in addition to the major floor upgrades that arrived a week ago in Bahrain, are a further attempt to help 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Charles Leclerc.

In Saudi Arabia this weekend, Ferrari have focꦯused their attention to the rear wing and the beam wing.

Tꦑhe updates to the SF-25’s rear wing are to improve drag reduction.

The first is a decambered, shorter chord top rea𒁏r wing flap element.

Ferrari describe its purpose: “Adapting to the peculiarities of the Jeddah circuit aerodynamic efficiency requirements, this option is adding granularity in the av🦂ai♔lable downforce level options on the baseline rear wing.”

The second and third updates are linked. Ferrari are bꦿringing an offload🉐ed top rear wing and an offloaded single element lower beam wing.

They describe: “This top wing and lower beam wing opti🔴ons are carried-over components from last year’s low/medium downforce events, and provide a larger step compared to the flap described above.

“𒊎The lower beam wing can be combined with๊ different top wing assemblies.”

A week a𝓀go, Leclerc was fourth an💝d Hamilton fifth at the Bahrain Grand Prix.

It was their 🔴best result of the season, bringing optimism that Ferrari’s flo♑or upgrade had its desired effect.

However, those results are still some way short of the hy🌃pe surrounding Ferrari who won grands prix last year when they signed Hamilton.

McLaren and Red Bull upgrades

McLaren have brought a reshaped diffuser “to improve overall flo🤡w conditioning in this area, with the aim of gaining aerodynamic performance”ꦏ.

They also have a revised rear brake duct winglet arrangement which they hope “results in an improvement in local flowfield around the rear corner translating to an increase in🍰 aerodynamic efficiency”.

Red Bull have brought an enlarged central exit.

“Demands of circuit in Jeddah with the forecast ambient temperatu༺res require the use of a larger topbody to reject the heat needed for cooling,” they explain.

Red Bull also have a🅰 reduced chord and camber lower or beam wing.

“A step to reduce the downforce at a given☂ speed to observe the lift/drag requirements for this circuit,” they said.
