"The temperature of the engine is the result of the aerodynamics of the car, so we have to work on that in order to make sure that we don't have any more of these kinds of issues for the next hot races," he said.

The most obvious change is to the engine cover, which now features much more pronounced 'shark gills'. The (smaller) gills were present in Bahrain, but not at all during the cold winter testing period.
