Looks like they've removed the middle winglet and moved the upper one down compared to Silverstone. Must be a low DF spec for higher efficiency.

That is a strange new way to close them though!AR3-GP wrote: ↑18 Jul 2026, 19:48the middle cooling exits were closed for FP3/qualy.

Do you have a "before" picture as well?

I don't have the "after" picture so I marked the old picture from memory. The middle outlets have simply disappeared. It's more in line with the other teams. This would have brought some improvements to downforce and drag.
It was much warmer on Friday so they might have needed it then. Ferrari seems to have a lower heat tolerance than the others. We saw this in Austria where the PU was fully nerfed because of overheating despite having nearly the entire back of the car cut open.![]()
They have been able to close up the car now because it's much cooler on saturday and sunday.

What about DRS macarena wing, how can the wing rotate during activation? Or is DRS prohibited like in Monaco?dani5549 wrote: ↑23 Jul 2026, 12:00That is...extreme.Luscion wrote: ↑23 Jul 2026, 11:47Ferrari new rear wing

Looks like they saw the wings in Monaco and decided to include it, as they don't have the actuator in the middle to incomodate them as the other teams
I think there's enough space between for the wing to rotate correctly. But the setting is crazyFer.Fan wrote: ↑23 Jul 2026, 12:23What about DRS macarena wing, how can the wing rotate during activation?
