Analysis: Hamilton and Leclerc boost as Ferrari continue upgrade push at Saudi Arabian GP

Ferrari have arrived at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix with a revised rear wing arrangement as they continue to search for more performance from the SF-25, having introduced a clutch of parts last time out in Bahrain.

The team now have several rear wing and beam wing options in their pool, having added a trimmed version of the solution we’ve already seen them deploy this season, whilst also adding low/medium-downforce rear wing and beam wing solutions that they used last season.

The team will trial a combination of these solutions during free practice to evaluate which of them provides the necessary balance for their drivers, Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton, given the nature of the Jeddah Corniche circuit.

The new upper flap design, which Leclerc tried during FP1, has a subtle modification to the elements trailing edge, with a short transition used to reduce the chord length of the central section of the wing (arrowed).
