Ahead of the commencement of on-track action at the Qatar Grand Prix, no team except the Racing Bulls outfit have brought updates to their car. Here are all the updates the team introduced for the Lusail race.
The Qatar Grand Prix, which marks the penultimate race of the 2025 campaign, could hugely impact several narratives still undecided this season.
For the drivers’ title, Lando Norris has his first chance of clinching the crown, while several other teams are also aiming to climb higher in the constructors’ standings.

One team with such ambition is Racing Bulls, who are looking to consolidate the sixth place they moved up to last time out in Las Vegas. They are also the only team bringing updates to their car this weekend.

Racing Bulls Team Updates for the Qatar Grand Prix
The Faenza-based outfit has introduced a new front wing with an updated component for the Lusail race. While it is a circuit-specific update, the wing offers the VCARB-02 car a gurney flap option to provide additional front downforce, tailored to the balance requirements of the circuit.
Every other team on the Formula 1 grid has opted to maintain their current car specifications, with no changes made ahead of the on-track action in Lusail.
