Aston Martin wants to challenge Alonso in the top three teams in 2023

Date:

“Aston Martin is not here to finish fifth, sixth or fourth in the constructors’ championship. It is here to win the F1 World Championship and that is what we will try to do in 2023 and 2024.”said Fernando Alonso at the Brazilian GP, ​​words that were probably not explained correctly. Fernando does not want to say that he will fight for the title in 2023. Instead, the team will “try” and wants to highlight the ambition to put Aston Martin first in his project, where he wants to join the green team, leaving the conformism that he liked very little Alpine. From the very beginning, he said he was going to Aston Martin because of his project “more ambitious” and because felt “dearest”, to a team that won’t go “Look at his passport” Not even age that he has (41), fully confident in the Asturian’s abilities to climb.

For all this, the Aston Martin Chief Performance Officer Tom McCulloughpointed out the meaning of the words of Oviedo and clarified the purposes of the table of Silverstone by 2023.

“I think fighting for the championship next year, let’s be realistic, it’s not going to happen,” the manager pointed out. “Fernando is realistic and if we can fight to be in the top three teams next year, I’m sure we’ll be happy with that and, from there, we’ll go down the road to try to catch those at the top.”he added.

Aston Martin is currently in 7th place in the Constructors’ World Championship. They admitted a few months ago that the concept they bet on for the big regulation change in 2022 was not good and they managed to improve a lot in the second part of the season, leading their cars in the battle in the central zone with good weapons against Alpine de Alonso. Aston Martin has announced that they are preparing a “revolution” in their 2023 car, with a different concept compared to 2022, more precisely, they are sure to take an important step forward. It remains to be seen what will be the step forward from the others, but Aston Martin has set itself the goal of fighting for the Top-3, making a significant performance step compared to this year to start its path towards in what Alonso and the team really want. , fight for titles in the future.

neither Aston Martin neither Fernando Alonso They can be sure of winning titles in the years to come. No one can do it. And in fact, neither the team nor the pilot ensured it. They talked about the “desire”, that is, the will, the ambition to start a journey together to grow with good ingredients to do it: new engineers from Red Bull, good economic health , a new wind tunnel and an expanded factory. All this, to be the top in the future, an ambition that Alonso did not see in an Alpine team experiencing more delicate economic moments and greater uncertainty within the Renault Group.
