Ferrari Readies Dedicated Low-Drag Package for Monza
Ferrari plans a Monza-specific low-downforce aerodynamic package for the 2026 Italian Grand Prix. The update follows a floor evolution at Zandvoort and targets the Temple of Speed's high-speed layout. A revised turbocharger may also feature. The changes aim to optimise top speed and straight-line performance on Monza's long straights.
Monza Package Details
Ferrari intends to introduce a dedicated low-downforce aerodynamic package at the 2026 Italian Grand Prix at Monza.[1] The specification follows a floor update scheduled for the preceding Zandvoort round. It addresses the contrasting demands of the Temple of Speed layout.
Development Context
The package pairs with an updated ADUO 2 turbocharger focused on high-RPM efficiency.[2] Monza requires reduced drag for the circuit's extended straights while retaining corner stability. This contrasts with higher-downforce configurations used at tighter venues.
