Red Bull updates

The RB19 is dominant this year, but Max Verstappen indicated earlier this race weekend that the car is still being developed. The Austrian team also brought an update for the Silverstone race, but it is not aimed at better performance for the RB19. Red Bull has slightly modified the front brake air intake for the cooling needed for this particular circuit.

New front wings for Mercedes, Aston Martin and Alpine

Mercedes, Aston Martin and Alpine have all brought brand new front wings for the GP weekend in Britain. In addition, Aston Martin has also updated the air intake for the rear brakes.

AlphaTauri with most upgrades at Silverstone

AlphaTauri is the team that brought the most upgrades to the weekend in England. The team has eight updates for the AT04, especially the floor and rear wing have been given a lot of attention. Next comes Alfa Romeo with the most updates. The Swiss team has brought five upgrades to Silverstone. McLaren has brought four upgrades including changes to the nose of the MCL60. Ferrari is the only team without upgrades this weekend.
