That Mercedes would come up with upgrades this weekend was well-known. The German team is taking no fewer than six updates to the city-state. Red Bull Racing only has specific upgrades for this circuit. Aston Martin did bring some new parts to Monaco.

Mercedes W14-B?

The W14 will have side pods from this weekend, it was announced on Wednesday. Furthermore, the team has brought a lot of other upgrades to Monaco. For instance, the German constructor will also drive this weekend with a new floor, front suspension, rear wing and thus the new side pods. Red Bull has only brought updates for this type of circuit, such as a different rear wing and a slightly different front suspension.

Aston Martin also has some new parts on the AMR23 this weekend. These include a slightly different front and rear suspension and the team will also run with a different rear wing. Ferrari, like Red Bull, has brought a few new things to Monaco. The Scuderia only has a new rear wing and has changed a small element at the rear of the SF-23.
