F1 moves on from Barcelona to Spielberg for the Austrian Grand Prix this weekend, where various car and power unit developments are expected to be rolled out. But what exactly will each squad be running? F1.com presents a round-up\u2026<\/p>\n
Mercedes<\/p>\n
Mercedes<\/a> will run an updated front suspension in Austria \u2013 aimed at improving the flow to the rear of the car \u2013 as well as making an alteration to the coke\/engine cover which they have stated will allow for \u201cmore cooling range tuning\u201d.<\/p>\n Ferrari<\/p>\n The Ferrari<\/a> SF-26 is set to sport a revised front wing endplate \u2013 marking a further step on the new geometry introduced in Barcelona \u2013 while they have removed the RV Tail element, something that they have said was a Free Practice test item.<\/p>\n Updates that will feature in this weekend\u2019s practice sessions, however, are changes to the floor board and mirror stay. The Scuderia are aiming to gather data on these upgrades, which are both focused on aerodynamic correlation.<\/p>\n McLaren<\/p>\n As mentioned by Oscar Piastri<\/a> during Thursday\u2019s media day, McLaren<\/a> are going to test out an \u201cexperimental\u201d rear wing<\/a> on Friday in Austria, which he stated will be used on Lando Norris<\/a>\u2019 car. The squad have said that the wing \u201chas been modified to deploy the flap to an alternative position in straight line mode, resulting in a larger reduction in drag\u201d.<\/p>\n The reigning World Champions will also use a revised rear brake duct inlet this weekend, targeting a gain in aerodynamic load around the rear corner.<\/p>\n Red Bull<\/p>\n For their home event, Red Bull<\/a> are bringing a significant upgrade package to the RB22. Adjustments have been made to the sidepod inlet and engine cover in order to improve reliability, while a number of changes are aimed at boosting performance in local load.<\/p>\n This includes updates to the floor, rear suspension, rear corner, rear wing and exhaust. Additionally, profile changes to the floor board have been carried out to improve flow conditioning performance.<\/p>\n Alpine<\/p>\n Alpine<\/a> are another team set to run a few updates in Austria. The A526 will sport a new front wing design featuring a redesigned front wing endplate, while the nose has been updated to better integrate this new front wing.<\/p>\n The Enstone-based outfit are also bringing a revised front corner geometry as well as the addition of a winglet on the diffuser, both aimed at boosting the performance of the flow conditioning.<\/p>\n Racing Bulls<\/p>\n Two upgrades are listed for Racing Bulls<\/a> this weekend, one of these being that they have lowered the exhaust tailpipe which they have said \u201chelps with the flow management around the rear of the car, allowing the rear wing to perform efficiently\u201d.<\/p>\n There will also be revised diffuser trailing edge devices, targeting an improvement to aerodynamic flow conditioning at the back of the car.<\/p>\n Haas<\/p>\n Haas<\/a> have made a circuit-specific change to their cooling louvres, with the squad introducing two additional apertures on the upper surface of the sidepod.<\/p>\n Additionally, they have revised the front brake duct design, aimed at improving flow conditioning.<\/p>\n Williams<\/p>\n There are no upgrades listed for Williams<\/a> at this event.<\/p>\n Audi<\/p>\n Audi<\/a> have delivered a number of upgrades in Austria, with several targeting better local load performance. This includes updates to the front wing endplate, floor, rear suspension, beam wing and rear wing.<\/p>\n The squad will also sport alterations to the front corner and rear corner, aimed at improving flow conditions in these areas.<\/p>\n Aston Martin<\/p>\n Aston Martin<\/a> will not run any updates this weekend.<\/p>\n Cadillac<\/p>\n
