To achieve this, the team owner invested entirely in the engineering of the Galacticos, in addition to financing a new factory and a new blower.
The latter, the “secret weapon” of the Silverstone team and one of the reasons that it has attracted Adrien Newey It is now ready, awaiting calibration in a trial period that could end before the end of the year.

“Starting is about making sure that the ground the model is touching [de coche] is the one we want and so on, and maybe that will bring us two or three months to solve it” he explained Luca Furbatto, team engineering chief, in statements to RacingNews365.
“This will be ideal to start the development of the 2026 car, which is authorized from January 2025. I think the 2025 car will continue to develop, but it’s a very delicate balance between what you put [para] 2026 and what you put in 2025,” he added.
Furbatto was keen to stress that only Aston Martin will be at the forefront in terms of the factory: “If I’m not mistaken, the latest wind tunnel developed for F1 it was 20 years agoand there have been many technological changes.
“You could retrofit a 20-year-old wind tunnel with new technology, but It’s never the same as starting with something brand new.” he settled.
