Aston Martin boss warns: this is what’s coming for Alonso’s car

There is a statement of Fernando Alonso in a press conference after the classification of F1 Saudi Arabian GP that goes unnoticed. “We are not yet in a position to fight for the win with Red Bull”. That “still” speaks of the illusion and hope that Asturian and Aston Martin have to improve on the excellent car base they showed in the first two races of the year to get closer to the Milton Keynes races. The height of red bull Great to start, but the leader of the green team, Mike Crackmade it clear that his lack of energy drinks should be reduced as the weeks go by.

“The season is long. I don’t think Red Bull will keep their distance. We still have two good teams behind us who will do everything to catch them. The viewer must be patient and continue watching Formula 1”, said Mike Krack in the statements collected by the portal ‘Speedweek’. The Principal Team of the Silverstone box sent a clear warning to its competitors about the illusion that the factory has to continue improving the car from now on, with a very well structured plan of evolutions.

Krack and Fernando Alonso themselves said that before the start of the course that Aston Martin’s plan would change “two thirds of the car” from now until the end of the course. So far, they have fulfilled their first goals in a great way: they have confirmed their excellent performance in two different races, as the second best car in both surpassed only by two Red Bulls. And from there, Krack warns that improvements will come.

Silence comes from his words, that the plan is proceeding and that everything is under control. The same confidence in everything they do was seen in the tests and in the first two weekends of the race, always focused on their own car, without straying from their work plan and without overreacting. Point that gives to be very optimistic about what is to come.

“The pieces will come”Krack pointed out, clarifying that they do not plan to deviate from their roadmap, aware of the importance of making production parts that will be positive for the car, without rushing it, but taking the right steps in everything. times, taking into account the limitation of costs and the times available for CFD and wind tunnel simulation.

“We have to consider: what you’re going to do, when and where you’re going to meet the costs. If you take too many shots directly, you’re out. You have to decide depending on where your car is.”he commented.

more time to evolve

It should be remembered that Aston Martin had 37% more time by regulation than Red Bull to use the wind tunnel and carry out its simulations. That’s a world compared to those in Milton Keynes, who started out so strongly for this very reason, knowing their progress was less than the green car.

Aston Martin is a new car

There is more room for improvement

Also, the Red Bull is an evolution from last year and has less room for improvement than an Aston Martin AMR23 which is a new car.

Red Bull, with their new car from last year, improved a lot from the beginning to the end of the year. Aston Martin wants to do the same with its car. Mike Krack is confident that he can achieve it and the enthusiasm of him, the factory and Fernando Alonso, is enormous.
