The long-awaited improvements of Aston Martin arrived in Hungary and this Friday, before free practice, they were revealed in the official document sent by the FIA to accredited journalists. The green team is the team with the most evolution, but not the only one: Ferrari made an important change on the ground for Sainz and Leclerc and Red Bull showed changes to try to improve its car against a no incident McLaren and Mercedes.
These are Aston Martin’s improvements for Alonso
Aston Martin has high hopes for the many new features it unveiled in Hungary. Alonso already said, reducing the expectations, that they will not serve to reach the 4 best teams today, because “they are far”, but above all, the intention of these evolutions is to take a step, stand in a very equal. middle zone and especially, finding the right direction of development for a car that has not improved as much as it should with the new parts presented in previous races. They are thinking above all about the leap to 2025.
To do this, they presented a new floor with a profile very similar to that of McLaren, the leading team. We must remember in this sense that the floor is the element that provides the most performance and load in current vehicles, so it must be an important change. In addition, they have a new spoiler, a new diffuser, a new ‘Beam Wing’ and a new diffuser. A remarkable change of face where the green team wants to find the right path to start building its car from there with more certainty and more consistency.
Modified floor to get Sainz closer to the top
Sainz assured a press conference that from Hungary onwards the Ferrari team is confident of reducing the “two or three tenths” that would separate it in the fight for victories. The main change comes in Hungary, which has a modified floor with the aim of reducing one of its main problems in these last races, the ‘bounce’. This effect made the car harder and they hope that now the car will be easier so that their drivers can push harder, and maybe also tend to reduce height and gain load and cornering.
On this track in Hungary, the bounce is not a very important effect but it will be key at Spa-Francorchamps, where Ferrari hopes to be stronger thanks to this new thing.
Red Bull, many evolutions
From Miami, Red Bull saw how McLaren and Mercedes matched the champions and even surpassed them on many tracks in terms of lap performance or race pace. The current Red Bull is such a difficult car to drive that only Max can take it to the top with his magic. For this reason, the king of F1 brought many improvements to Hungary.
Red Bull has a new engine cover with a cooling change, reversing the changes they made in Japan. It also has changes to the areas between the front and rear wheels to improve airflow and a specific front spoiler for this circuit.
