Whatever they mean by modified front wing, they need to bring back the flex front wing. Somehow Red bull managed use it and keep it since last season 2023, but Aston got the ban. This year all the top teams are using it. It is a clear game change for the flow of air in the straights but also on the corners.

It's likely to be the flexible wing, given the timelines involved since the Canadian GP when AMuS reported that AMR were working on their own version, and the updated guidance given by the FIA there

AMuS says a new front wing too. Maybe that pic wasn't the new one, not sure.

It is Thursday. Not uncommon for new parts to be bolted on before FP1

Like I said, all that flexi data from last year is useful again. Quicker than expected if true, but not entirely surprised they could bring a new wing so soon.

Here's hoping to a decent top 5 fight.

Has Aston ever made a single positive in season upgrade ? Does any come to mind the last 2 years ?

Stroll senior won't take this for much longer before he makes a bold move

I see all of you with a very clear idea of what's wrong with the car. And also quite confident that the flex front wing gives a lot of time per lap.

Wish you're right, mates. However, I can't help being a little more cautious. If so many top minds at the team are more or less clueless for almost two years of what works and what doesn't, it's hard to believe that We, simple aficionados, know what's happening.

Nevertheless, I'm always optimistic and keep the faith.

I don't get the TD from 2023, what was it TD078, has been removed?
