Red Bull Racing have brought a number of updates for the Austrian Grand Prix weekend. The Austrian team is one of the few to have brought upgrades this weekend.

The GP weekend in Spielberg is special, as with qualifying on Friday and the sprint races on Saturday, the weekend runs a little differently than usual. With only one free practice session before Parc Fermè, the teams logically choose to save the updates for the next race weekend.

Still, Red Bull has brought some updates. Spanish Formula 1 journalist Albert Fabrega shares on his twitter account the document published by the FIA. Red Bull has added an extra hole in the chassis to cool the car for reliability and the brake disc has been modified for heat. An adjustment has also been made to the floor to improve balance.

Mercedes and Ferrari have no new parts on the car at the Red Bull Ring. McLaren, Alpine and Williams do. McLaren has new rear brakes and a new rear wing. Alpine also comes with a new rear wing and Williams brings a new front suspension specification.
