An overview of the ground floor of the Ferrari F1-75, one of which is the previous update to the previous Spanish GP, denoted by the lower and shorter exterior track. However, we also have a decent view of the dorsal wing.

The rear of the ground mounted on the Ferrari F1-75 confirms that it is currently configured with the above specification as it has the L-shaped edge wing.

Mercedes mechanics are preparing the W13 for action ahead of the Monaco Grand Prix and, as expected, have installed a high aerodynamic rear spoiler for the event.

Another angle of the Mercedes W13 while preparing is to give us a better view of the layout of the sides, with the high but narrow entrance feeding the radiators that have been embedded deep in the chassis wall.

The W13’s front brake drum is much more streamlined this year, due to new regulatory restrictions.

Mercedes has two metal chambers housed inside the dividing section of the car, between the back and the bottom of the chassis to help control the flexion of the back when it comes in contact with the track.

Take a look at the front brake pipe closure and the entrance to the Mercedes W13, you’ll notice that it has a wire in one of the channels to prevent debris from accumulating, such as tire marbles.

Red Bull has equipped the RB18 with a high-power aerodynamic rear wing and, most importantly, plans to capture images from the rear camera to help it understand the flexion it has. You will use the checkered stickers, which are seen on the outer sections of the transition section of the end plate, to study the movement.

A good photo of the RB18 without the external side body attached, but you’ll notice that the team also uses some extra bodywork that attaches to the heat exchangers to help the flow through the set. Also note the diffuser-like lines that match the external grilles that help channel the heat that is being rejected.

Much appreciated in this photograph of the AlphaTauri AT03, including the rear spoiler, which has been modified paint scheme to reduce weight, the double-beam wing, the exposed amount and the saddle refrigerator above of the power unit.

A better view of the rear pillar and some of the internal details of the brake, including the brake disc housing.

The disc is surrounded in a similar way to the front of the car, but due to the need to supply airflow to the caliper in a different way, the design has its differences.

This is how it looks once the brake drum has been placed on these internal parts.

Detail of Williams FW44 brake drum

By comparison, Williams has opted for a wider, shorter entry for its front brakes, while you’ll also notice that this enlarged body section is also in the body of the main brake drum.

Below that, Williams has the brake disc surrounded, rather than closed like many of the other teams, as he approaches his thermal management in a different way.

Here we can see how this is handled in the back of the car, with a kind of hybrid solution, with the top of the brake disc closed, while a window opens at the bottom.

The Aston Martin’s push rod crosses the large dam of the brake duct that the equipment has installed for Monaco, while you will also notice the window of the cooling housing of the brake caliper, which allows the heat rejected by the holes in the disk can escape.

Also note the many details we can see regarding the layout of the radiator, the installation of the power unit, the contour of the floor, the gearbox housing and the interior rear suspension.
