    McLaren: Fully New intigrated DDD, some minor aero tweaks.

    Ferrari: New rear suspension and fully intigrated DDD. New Chassis for Felipe Massa.

    BMW Sauber: Anything, it cant get any worse, can it??? In reality, DDD First version and a non-superconductor KERS, probably alot more aero tweaks.

    Renault: Lots of aero tweaks, and a new front suspension and front wing/nosecone. Updated KERS system.

    Toyota: Finally putting all the tweaks from the last 3 races together and getting a cohesive package with them, and starting to hone it.

    STR: Sticking plaster DDD as used by RBR at Monaco, and some other small aero tweaks. Posible running of the Ferrari KERS system on one car.

    Red Bull: Full new rear end to incorperate fully integrated DDD and Pull Rod suspension.

    Williams: General aero update.

    Force India: General aero update, and same as Toyota, make package cohesive and hone it.

    Brawn GP: General aero update with some new mechanical updates.








    Ferrari: New rear suspension and fully integrated DDD. New Chassis for Felipe Massa.

    Good post Vectra - I hope brawn have a harder time this weekend, not because i dont like Jenson, but just to make it more entertaining.
    Hopefully Ferrari can get their set-up right, however, i think Vettel might be quick this weekend and maybe put some pressure on Jenson!

    Updates doesn't always mean a car gets faster/better. Especially with no testing.

    Good performance from Robert Kubica in Practice 2 today , p3, but it will be hard to judge the performance improvements until the qualifying sessions.

    In those pics Vectra, which is the defusser? The big plate at the bottom that seems to sweep upwards is it?

    What's double-decker about it if you would excuse my ignorance on this one?

    Thats the one
    Have a read here >> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffuser_(automotive)

    It may help you understand better than I can probably explain it right now
    Basically it is a device that helps to "Suck" the car to the track
