A new front wing configuration is available to Alpine in Las Vegas, with a trim made across the span of the upper flaps’ trailing edge but more so at the inboard end, including the static section alongside the nose.

McLaren also has a trimmed upper flap on its front wing to balance the downforce level with the chosen rear wing specification.

At the front of the car, a shallower upper flap profile is in use, to balance downforce levels front-to-rear.

Alpine has paired its low downforce rear wing with just a single beam wing element, to reduce downforce and drag for the high speed street track.

The rear wing being employed is the same specification as the one used by the team at the Italian Grand Prix, which highlights how little downforce its running.

McLaren has opted to produce a bespoke rear wing and beam wing solution that reduces downforce and drag for this specific circuit.

A wider shot of the MCL60 shows the straight edge being used across the span of the front wing’s mainplane, rather than the spoon-shaped variant we’re used to seeing employed. This view also affords us a glimpse of how deep the gulley is at the rear of the sidepod downwash ramp.

Ferrari is finally making use of a rear wing specification we haven’t seen it use since Belgium, with its version of the open-ended endplate and tip section employed once more. Also note the curved profile in the centre of the upper flap’s trailing edge, which also has a Gurney flap applied.
