The race for development didn’t stop with the arrival of the summer break. In the four races after returning from the holidays, all teams introduced at least one update. Among the leading teams, Red Bull, Mercedes, Ferrari, and Aston Martin each brought a new floor. However, the most significant package is the one McLaren introduced in Singapore with the intention of improving straight-line speed and cornering performance. AlphaTauri, on the other hand, continues to lead in the production of updates. Finally, there were many adjustments made for low-downforce tracks in Monza, which will also be useful in Las Vegas. Here is a list of all the technical updates from the first sixteen races.
