Technical updates: 2025 Italian Grand Prix

The unique characteristics of Monza has prompted teams to bring circuit-specific upgrades to the Italian Grand Prix.

Monza’s low-downforce demands see teams introduce specific wings for the track, with McLaren introducing a trimmed front wing flap, low-downforce rear wing, reduced chord rear wing flap and a low-downforce beam wing. There’s also a performance upgrade in reprofiled from suspension fairings, that are designed to work in tandem with the low drag configuration this weekend but could be used elsewhere.

Ferrari has what it describes as a “depowered” front wing flap to help balance the car with its low-downforce rear wing and beam wing, that are both reused from 2024 when Ferrari won at Monza. “This top wing and lower beam wing options are carried-over components from last year’s low-downforce events. Different top rear wing flap geometries and trim are available, to allow modulation,” the team stated.

As well as a front wing tweak, Red Bull has a potentially significant upgrade, with a new floor introduced at Monza. Revised floor surfaces within the floor body, plus an updated floor edge and floor fences, are designed to extract more load. Red Bull says the re-optimization of floor surfaces are a result of “subtle changes [that] have been made to extract more load through improved pressure distribution while maintaining flow stability.”

There's also a floor update at Mercedes, where the camber on the floor fences has been changed, as well as an adapted front and rear wing.

Aston Martin only has a less aggressive rear wing flap option that is specific to Monza, while Haas has only brought a front wing flap with reduced chord length to balance the car.

A number of modifications have been introduced by Racing Bulls, with the floor body changed as the underfloor and edge wing have been revised in order to increase the efficient load generated underneath the car. There’s an update to the bodywork sidepod shape too, as well as updated mirror housings and an updated rear wing for drag settings.

Williams has brought a trimmed front wing flap as well as a reduction to the rear wing flap for downforce levels, while Alpine and Sauber have no new components this weekend.
