MovistarF1 (a Spanish television) said that Toro Rosso, in addition to the bargeboard, had changes in the nose and diffuser.
Does anyone know these updates?
Thanks
I can't see anything new on the diffuser but there are new slots on the RW endplates.

They are running the t-wing and the lower part of the vertical rear wing sides have an opening and flick outward. There is also a flip up on the exhaust pipe.
Honda!

Opened up a bit more for cooling. That's normal.
