Hope all goes well :D Rear suspension is the aerodynamic fairing, not internal components according to the FIA sheet.

Upgrade pace has been very good this year so far. Now the question is if they gain as much laptime as other team's

That's not quite accurate for Red Bull at minimum, they had 4 updates in Japan and 5 reported updates now so 9 in total.

This many updates for AMR is way too much by race 7, they won't have the budget to make consistent updates after summer break if they keep this pace up
And they call it a stall. A STALL!

If I remember correctly according to Krack the new factory was supposed to allow for one or two more upgrades each year due to cost savings, so maybe that's partially where it comes from.

With this pace, Top 3 will end up with 25-30 updates, I think it was the same last year. While AMR would be easily at 45-50 if they keep this pace... Just saying

They can’t do much about it. Maybe floor changes will alleviate it. But will have to wait till next year and hope mercedes rear suspension improves like Ferrari did for this year

Nearly everyone got it wrong, only the source some weeks ago (floor and diffusor) was right (forgot who it was). But also not very hard to guess.

edit:

outlap, some secs later red flag...

Spanish journalist, yeah I'm finding him to be the best source out there so far.

Floor and diffuser upgrade according to carlos miquel. Obviously a rumour but he was correct about having upgrades for Japan

Visually speaking I don't find any big differences. Then they praised Imola, but in Miami it seems to me that McLaren brought 10 performance upgrades. I don't know, Ferrari is doing better in my opinion. However, it is from Bahrain that I say that the tire problem can be solved next year, because it is due to the design of the suspensions, I finally see someone saying it. Many see similarities with sf23... But do you know what the difference is? That the sf23 was the fastest in qualifying...
