We had two strong races there and the car is working well. But unfortunately we had to retire the car in Italy, where we hope to be in the points for the eleventh time in a row,” the Spaniard said in a team statement.

In the fight to dominate the midfield in this test, Aston Martin is also expected to show off some serious weapons by bringing another update to its package in Singapore.
