Aston Martin went back. Since Imola, when they introduced the first updates, the car has only gotten worse. Neither Fernando Alonso nor Lance Stroll They were able to fight for points in the last few races. And the green car is almost last on the grid.
Dan Fallows, The Aston Martin guru has explained what’s going on and revealed the chaos with the improvements being introduced.
In comments reported by ‘Motor.es’, Fallows explains what the team found: “Even though we partially achieved the objective, We found handling issues or discovered features of the car that had been hidden. »
“We were able to find some of it, but throughout the year we discover more and more thingswhich meant we didn’t fully understand them yet. It seems to be a problem that a lot of teams have had to deal with,” Fallows said after the Brazilian Grand Prix.
“We found that for the most part updates behave as expected, although sometimes there are slightly underestimated consequences, or others that we are aware of but have a more serious impact on performance” , explains the technical director of the Aston Martin team, which was signed coming from Red Bull.
Because while other teams are improving, Aston Martin is going backwards. Alpine achieves a double podium in Brazil with Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly. Something Aston Martin can’t even imagine at the moment.
