Aston Martin rang the bells with the development of the 2025 car in the mouth of its team leader, Microphone Crack. The Luxembourg engineer commented on his feelings after entering the new wind tunnel, now typical of the British team, and the simulator of the next car he will drive. Fernando Alonsowith which they hope that the Asturian will return to the podium as he achieved eight times last year.
Krack’s comparison was surprising to say the least and he commented on the similarity of the car simulator with which Alonso and Lance’s Walk will participate in the next World of Formula 1 with one of the most watched cinematic sagas in history. “I saw a demonstration of our new simulator and was absolutely impressed. I felt like I was in Star Wars“, he said.
“This has also been a great project, with a dedicated team who have put all their experience into making it best in class. Just like in the wind tunnel, I’ll talk to everyone to improve my own understanding, and the simulator is just amazing. This will improve our loyalty, it will improve the entire feedback loop that the driver will have,” he explained on this subject.
Krack also began to evaluate in the statements provided by Aston Martin on its website the new additions that the team based in Silver Stone: “I really want to start. With Enrico (Cardile)we gain enormous experience in leading and leading a technical organization. With Adrien (Newey)you get a huge amount of creativity and in-depth knowledge of the vehicle. “I’m excited to have them here because, firstly, they’re going to help us make faster cars, and secondly, I’m going to learn a lot from them.”

And he also focused on the figure of Andy Cowell: “He is totally committed, it didn’t take him long to find his place. He’s still learning how we do things, but he’s not afraid to ask and he’s not afraid of change. The exchange was very collaborative and adaptable very quickly. Andy is a guy who gets serious when he needs to and likes to laugh when he doesn’t. “He’s a very strong leader, but also a good listener.”
And the Luxembourger, as usual, did not hide when analyzing this bad year 2024 for Aston Martin: “It was our most difficult season because we did not meet our own expectations. We challenged ourselves to create a car that we could continuously develop to compete with the top four teams, and we failed to live up to those ambitions. We have to be honest about this. “We need to accept the situation, learn all we can from it, understand the mistakes we made and find the best way to move forward.”
Finally, he recalled the exploit of his people in the Brazilian Grand Prixwhere after disastrous qualifying with two accidents of Alonso and Stroll, he managed to put both cars back on the track on the same day, just two hours later: “I must also salute the team spirit that was demonstrated on the track and at Silverstone. In Brazil, against all odds, the team rebuilt two cars in record time. The teamwork was incredible and made me very proud.
“Back at base, we produced new parts in our new facilities in record time and with the highest quality. We all worked together, no complaints, just collaboration. When I see this, I have confidence in what we can achieve together. We just need time, he said, a little over a week before the appointment arrives. Las Vegas.
