Fernando Alonso asked for improvements and he has them. Aston Martin started as the second best car on the grid at the start of the course, but McLaren, Mercedes and Ferrari brought more and better innovations to the development race and this made the green car the fifth best on the grid in the last appointment before summer break. And in the first after the holidays, came the long-awaited and announced improvements. Mike Krack promises an important package of evolutions for the GP of the Netherlands (more news is expected for the Singapore event) with the hope that these news will allow Aston Martin to make up some of their deficit to Red Bull and get back into the fight for podiums against McLaren , Mercedes and Ferrari. And they came to Zandvoort. This Friday, the Silverstone team showed them to the pit lane, where MD went up close. He package focuses on the main element that determines most of the car’s performance: the ground.
The package of changes presented by Aston Martin is a massive change on the ground of the car, in all its areas. All this, according to the official document of the evolution published by the FIA on Friday, is thought “together” to “improve the details of the local air flow and increase the load generated by the ground.” It should be noted that in current single-seaters, the ground is the area of the car that provides most of the downforce, the transcendental element of the single-seater and where most of the tenths per lap are hidden. So this time, Aston Martin is a big change.
Aston Martin changed the underground surfacewhich is hidden by being attached to the asphalt. It also changed its boundaries by the same and even the package works combination with a modification of disufor, done to “change the volume of the lower surface”. In addition, the Changes also come with a small flap behind the diffuser.
