The Monaco Grand Prix circuit’s unique nature requires every Formula 1 team to bring a modified front suspension and brake duct package, along with high-downforce parts. Specifically tailored front suspension is crucial for full-lock steering around tight hairpins, necessitating reshaped trackrod and wishbone fairings. Brake duct shapes are adjusted to avoid interference with wheel travel due to the low air speeds at Monaco. Teams prioritize maximizing downforce by adding larger wings, rather than worrying about drag, in line with Monaco’s characteristics. McLaren is experimenting with different rear wing designs for optimal performance, while Aston Martin has enhanced its upper front wing flap options for improved responsiveness. Some teams opt to use high-downforce rear wings from the previous year, emphasizing the circuit-specific nature of these updates.
