Formula 1 Dashboard
With the Formula 1 season back in full swing after the summer break, teams have returned to the track at the Dutch Grand Prix with a few fresh upgrades. While the focus is increasingly shifting to the 2026 car regulations, three teams have still introduced new parts to their current cars.
Red Bull Racing
Red Bull has introduced the only new part from a race-winning team at the Dutch Grand Prix: a revised front wing. This new design features longer chord flaps, which the team says are necessary to increase downforce and meet the unique demands of the Zandvoort circuit.
Alpine
Alpine has also made a minor update to the rear of their car. The team has modified the rear brake duct furniture, adding reprofiled winglets. These changes are intended to improve how airflow moves around the rear wheel.
Sauber
Sauber is another team that has focused on its rear brake ducts. The team, which has been performing well recently with six consecutive point-scoring finishes, has updated the design of its rear brake duct vanes. The team explained that these changes are designed to influence the airflow around the rear of the car, specifically near the diffuser and rear wheels.
