RB introduced a new nose and front wing assembly at the last race of the season but, while the team did use the latest design, briefly during practice on Friday, the team quickly reverted to its regular specification for the rest of the weekend.
The car ran with a large Kiel probe rake attached behind the front wheels, with both front wing and nose designs on the car during that session in order to capture data that could be assessed to see how the different specifications altered the airflow's behaviour.
