30 July 2011 - Ferrari 150° Italia - front wing updates
 
Ferrari tried a lot of new components in Hungary on Friday, even some aero solutions that could be useful on the 2012 car, which will have a differently shaped cockpit. Both Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa tested this front wing (main drawing), which (in Red Bull style) features an additional upper-deck flap absent on the regular configuration (inset).
30 July 2011 - Ferrari 150° Italia - rear wing updates
 
Ferrari tried a lot of new components in Hungary on Friday, even some aero solutions that could be useful on the 2012 car, which will have a differently shaped cockpit. Both Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa trialled this rear wing in a back-to-back test with the configuration used previously for qualifying and the race in Germany. It has a curved main plane (centre red arrow), where the previous one was straight, with only three gills in the endplate (left red arrow), and different positioning of the planes relative to the endplate (right red arrow). These endplates seem to be in Spa configuration, but with, of course, a different, medium-downforce main plane and flap set-up.
30 July 2011 - Renault R31 - front wing variations
Renault's drivers had three different front wings at their disposal on Friday in Hungary, including one used by the team in Monaco (left circle). In the end they chose the one shown in the main drawing for qualifying and the race. This configuration was also used at the Nurburgring last weekend.
31 July 2011 - Red Bull RB7 - front wing changes
Red Bull used a mix of old and new front-wing solutions in Hungary. They moved back to the original, thin wing support, in place of the newer, wide one (1), and also reverted to the turning vanes under the nose cone (2) rather than those attached to the lower part of the chassis which the team had been running since Valencia. The main plane and flap (3) were new, derived from the Nurburgring configuration, and on Friday Sebastian Vettel also tried a different flap design (4) for a few laps.
