For the Grand Prix weekend in Britain, many teams have again brought upgrades for their cars. Red Bull Racing only came with a minimal update for cooling. Aston Martin, Mercedes and Alpine all brought a new front wing. Ferrari did not bring any updates.
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.
