It includes updates to the splitter, front floor, front VGs, front wheel arches, brake cooling, and power steering pump. In the rear, both the wing and the diffuser have been revised.

Interestingly, a "Biposto" two-seater version has also been homologated.

"Firstly, the rear wing support section was missing four bolts compared to the homologated version of the car, which Ferrari acknowledged was not compliant with the rules. ... "Ferrari argued that “the excessive deflection was linked to the missing bolts” and insisted there had been “no performance gain”, but stewards noted the #50 Ferrari achieved its highest top speed on lap 380 out of 387 – implying there was a performance gain thanks to reduced drag.

"A Ferrari mechanic reportedly noticed the absence of a bolt at 3:23pm, less than an hour before the end of the race, but the AF Corse-run squad did not take corrective action.

I've also read that all cars were checked for this (don't have a source for this though), and also considering the nature of this failure, neither the 51 nor the 83 should be affected.

Ferrari has won the 93rd running of the Le Mans 24 Hours with its satellite #83 entry, driven by Phil Hanson, Robert Kubica and Yifei Ye.
...
The LMP2 class went the way of Tom Dillmann, Jakub Smiechowski and Nick Yelloly in Inter Europol Competition’s #43 ORECA, which led for pretty much the last eight hours and survived a late-race drive-through penalty to win.
...
In a much more attritional race, Ryan Hardwick, Richard Lietz and Riccardo Pera prevailed in Manthey’s #92 Porsche; their main competitors, Team WRT’s #46 BMW driven by Valentino Rossi, Ahmad Al Harthy and Kelvin van der Linde, retired shortly before the midway point after van der Linde went off at the Porsche curves.

"The British organisation unveiled a full-scale model of the LMDh prototype that will race in the Hypercar class of the WEC from 2027 ahead of this year's Le Mans 24 Hours, 30 years on from its victory in the French enduro with the F1 GTR.

"The track-day car is being developed in parallel to the racing machine, in conjunction with Dallara, and will be powered by the same twin-turbo V6 engine.
