Overview
- The FIA released Car Presentation Submissions revealing that all teams except Mercedes, Alpine, and Williams introduced circuit-specific upgrades for the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.
- McLaren added a reshaped diffuser and rear brake duct winglet to enhance aerodynamic efficiency, while Ferrari reduced drag with shorter rear wing flaps and offloaded beam wing elements.
- Red Bull focused on thermal management with an enlarged engine cover exit for cooling and implemented a lower drag beam wing similar to Ferrari's approach.
- Teams like Aston Martin, Haas, Racing Bulls, and Sauber introduced drag-reducing rear and front wing modifications, with Sauber also enhancing its floor geometry for efficient downforce gains.
- The Jeddah Corniche Circuit's ultra-high-speed layout necessitated these updates, emphasizing drag reduction, downforce balance, and cooling efficiency under FIA regulatory scrutiny.
