F1 Teams Introduce Extensive Aerodynamic Upgrades Ahead

Ahead of today's second session, multiple Formula 1 teams including McLaren, Mercedes, Red Bull, Ferrari, Aston Martin, Haas, Alpine, Audi and Racing Bulls introduced aerodynamic updates addressing 2026 regulation changes. Updates span new front wings, floors, rear wings, bodywork, cooling and SM/SLM actuation, aiming to balance cornering (CM) downforce and Straightline Mode drag reduction. Engineers must integrate centreline actuators, rethink floor sealing and cooling for optimized diffuser and rear-wing performance.
