Looks like throughout the year with most updates they gained more questions and unknowns rather than pure performance. It's just weird to see time-consuming and expensive updates being replaced by an old spec just after a race or two. I hope they will find the solution for this quickly because how can you build a car for 2026 knowing that the tools that you are using in the factory are not giving you the expected results on the track?
So Austin was an evolution on Hungry.
Sometimes, the last update of the year is bringing in parts from the next year.Often those parts will have been designed to work with a different chassis. We saw a bit of that last year where they kept trying open the gap under the side pod and use a different floor edge but couldn't get it to work cause of where the rads where in 2023.
They have been using Hungry upgrades for the most part, which is a change from Suzuka we had been using.
I do agree with you... The Imola upgrades went backwards, Hungry was a correction on Imola and was still kind of a flat upgrade and Austin upgrades didn't work.
