Canadian Grand Prix

Front wing outboard elements dropped in height and run into the footplate.

Running the front wing elements into the footplate, and adding strakes, results in more robust flow structures, improving flow to the rear of the car and gaining downforce.

Front wing endplate and footplate adjusted to accommodate the above.

Footplate stakes added. Diveplane camber adjusted.

Increased inlet and exit size.

Due to the high braking demands of Montreal - increasing the duct inlet and exit size increases mass flow feeding the discs resulting in more cooling.

Reprofiled diffuser roof By reprofiling the diffuser roof and sidewall we improve the surface flow quality throughout the operating envelope and generate more local load.

Rear winglet span and position redistribution Chord and position of the rear caketin winglets re-optimised to improve local flow control and performance of the diffuser.

Front caketin upper lip camber reduced.

Reduced upper lip camber improves flow structure robustness throughout the operating envelope, improving the onset flow to the rear wing.

Reprofiled elements Reprofiled elements to improve local pressure distribution and reduce separations at the extremes of the operating envelope, resulting in increased local load.

Additional slots Re-optimisation of floor corner slot arrangement to both increase local load and to also improve flow into the diffuser and hence rear load.

Cooling Louvre Options

As part of the new bodywork package, multiple cooling louvre options are available to cover the full range of ambient temperatures expected at this and future events.

New Bodywork A revised bodywork package featuring additional cooling exits aiming at improved aerodynamic flow conditioning towards the rear of the car.

Halo Winglet A new winglet on top of the halo, aiming at improved management of aerodynamic flow around the cockpit and central engine cover.

Revised Rear Wing Endplate Modification to the rear wing endplate geometry resulting in a change in load distribution and increase in local aerodynamic load.

Revised Floor Edge Devices Iteration on floor edge devices aimed at improved overall floor conditioning and aerodynamic load generation on the floor and diffuser.

New Front Wing A new front wing design, aimed at better flow conditioning across the operating range resulting in improved aerodynamic load delivery.

Revised Rear Suspension Fairings Small modification to the rear suspension fairings aimed at improved aerodynamic flow conditioning and load generation around the rear corner and diffuser.

Revised Sidepod Inlet The revised bodywork enables a more pronounced undercut along the lower surfaces, which, combined with increased top‑surface downwash, channels higher‑energy airflow towards the rear of the car, allowing the bespoke floor design to operate more efficiently.

Revised floor geometry, with new floor board, new floor edge splits and a more aggressive diffuser promoting up- and side-wash The new floor was developed in conjunction with the updated bodywork.

Its geometries are optimised to guide higher‑energy airflow through the floor volume, enhancing mass flow and stability, and promoting more efficient extraction and overall load generation.

Optimized suspension faring design The updated floor and bodywork required a realignment of the suspension fairings, enabling improved flow conditioning in this region and extracting additional performance from the overall package.

Revised winglet geometry on the inboard drum face The modified incoming flow field required a realignment of the inboard drum devices to maintain their aerodynamic effectiveness and ensure consistent performance within the updated overall flow conditions.

Undercut and top downwash

New front brake duct design.

Changes offer increased brake system cooling flow for the big braking zones of this specific track.

Updated diffuser.

Diffuser geometry update with a further evolution of its shape aiming to increase aero load efficiently at the rear end.

New sidepod louvres.

For this event new sidepod louvres are available to allow fitting more efficient cooling options.

New rear brake duct design.

Changes offer increased brake system cooling flow for the big braking zones of this specific track.

New Main Floor geometry A new floor geometry resulting in an efficient downforce increase generated by the underbody of the car, across a range of operating conditions.

Reprofiled Rear Corner devices Working in conjunction with the floor update, the changes to the rear corner devices improve the flow management at the back of the car.

Profile and incidence modifications Supporting the changes made to the floor and around the exhaust, the Beam Wing changes help extract additional load from the rear wing assembly.

Reprofiled tailpipe bracket The tailpipe bracket update improves the flow management around the centreline of the car as part of the surrounding changes on the Beam Wing and floor.

Revised brake duct exit geometry The next two circuits on the calendar demand more brake assembly cooling and to offer this an enlarged exit duct has been produced to enhance the cooling

Bib edge trim and revised forward floor devices To further optimise both the bib and forward floor devices, the former has a trim applied and the latter mildly increased camber resulting in the local load increasing

exit panel option Given the forecast for Montreal, a closed radiator exit panel has been created with the louvre steps necessary for the race in Miami now closed.

A new FBD scoop geometry with a reprofiled exit area.

To suit the demands of the Gilles-Villeneuve circuit, a new FBD geometry will be introduced which offers an increased level of overall brake system cooling.

Revised suspension cladding surfaces, with changes in chord and incidence across their span.

In concert with the updated FBD geometry, new suspension cladding will be available to improve the local interactions on the front corner and hence downstream across the rest of the car.

A repositioned exhaust tailpipe Following on from an update introduced at the previous Miami GP, a further step on the exhaust system will be evaluated which offers an improved coupling with the surrounding aerodynamic components.

New floor and board geometry

A completely new floor geometry is released at this event with the objective of increasing aerodynamic performance and efficiency across all operating conditions.

Modified rear wing geometry

As part of our rear wing development programme, geometrical adjustments to our latest rear wing are introduced at this event.

Updated leading edge lip, brake duct internals and exit geometry The leading edge lip profile of the FBD has been revised to improve overall aerodynamic loading, whilst internal duct and exit geometry revisions increase brake cooling capacity

Revised Diffuser winglet lower trim and hanger details A lower edge trim has been applied to the Diffuser winglet cascade, and the hanger detail has been revised to increase local aerodynamic load at the rear of the car
