The French Alpine team has identified an aerodynamic fault in the front wing of its A526 car during the last race at the Australian Grand Prix and is already working on a solution, although the improvements will only arrive for the Japanese Grand Prix. According to information obtained by Noticias Argentinas, the European team will introduce updates to the A526 for the next race after the Chinese Grand Prix. This means that Argentine driver Franco Colapinto will race with the same car he used in Australia. The team identified the problem after analyzing the data collected on track and the car's behavior during the race, discovering that the anomaly lies in the aerodynamic performance of the front wing, a key component for the car's balance and the proper distribution of airflow to the rest of the vehicle. Based on this diagnosis, the engineers have begun developing new solutions to correct the deficiency.
