SF-24 EVO (1/6) Inlet shape is closer to the one we see on the Alpine. LE of lower lip is extended on IB side. Secondly, the s-duct fairing now joins the lower lip of the inlet. It would seem the s-duct outlet now joins the radiator ducts and the outlet has been removed.

Leclerc is basically matching the leaders. Sad to see it all thrown away on Lap 3. A podium for him was possible. Sainz miserable pace on the medium is the reason the team put him on the hard. Wouldn't have made it to the end on a soft.

Mega tow for MV into T2, in addition to paying an 4-5kph to them on the straight (dropped wing level) meant S1 was out of reach for everyone. The difference in S2/S3 were not enough, but this should be better for us in the race. Staying in DRS, again very crucial.

(4/6) VG's on the mid-floor curl have increased surface area & more pronounced. The SP undercut has also been deepened by quite a bit around mid-floor to rear corner. The profile of the forward undercut has also changed but I can't find an angle where it is conclusive enough.
