AMuS:

This picture does not match other photos from Japan so imo it's from a much earlier race. Surely they wouldn't ditch successful updates from the past two races?

This is not old. It's new. The lower part (mounting) is redesigned.

Old design (w.o. Ferrari elements):


New design:

What might be in the guitar-body shaped box? Simply intake manifold related? It is above the oil tank, forward of and above the main manifold.

Yes, he had the new ICE and MGU-H from FP3 onwards!

It looks like it has pipes coming out of the back, might be an air-to-water intercooler.

Renault engine has a straight intake pipes slanted forward, hence occupying space above oil tank.

The pipe seen is the intake to the manifold from the sidepod intercooler. That pipe is also seen

[Gerhardsa]

Would look better without that stupid shark-fin.

The more I look at it, the more Ferrari-esqe the RBR is looking like. At first, it was the sidepod deflector, now FW endplate.
