The AlphaTauri AT04 has not been the greatest of the sister Red Bull team’s cars of recent years. Its average qualifying pace is better only than the Alfa Romeo, and its main shortfall has been in slow corners where its downforce has been relatively weak as the rear ride height increases.
A big update introduced at the British Grand Prix has been months in the planning and is specifically targeted at improving that rear end grip in slow corners. There is a second phase to this upgrade, which is scheduled to appear this weekend in Budapest – where it will be raced by Yuki Tsunoda and his new team mate Daniel Ricciardo.

The Silverstone part of the upgrade was based around a new floor, upper bodywork and diffuser. There was also a new version of the medium downforce rear wing, though this was a separate development.
