Sauber have brought a host of rear bodywork upgrades as they look to get their first points of the season at the high-downforce Marina Bay circuit. Most visably notable is that they've largely increased the outlets around the exhaust. Even though the Singapore GP is a night race, high temperatures are still an issue, so the C33 now features a larger cooling area at the rear of the car.
The team have also implemented a new Y100 winglet (commonly referred to as a 'Monkey Seat'). This is hardly a surprise as the last race (Monza) was a drag-dependent circuit and this is a downforce centered track, meaning this winglet is needed to use the exhaust plumes to generate extra downforce at the rear of the car.
