Aston Martin restructures its technical team before the arrival of Adrien Newey. AND Dan Fallowswho was the guru of the team, was the first to lose his position as technical director. Which makes sense for former Formula 1 driver Ralf Schumacher.
This is what he expressed in statements to ‘Formel1.de’: “Now, with Adrian Newey, Aston Martin gave him the opportunity, and that’s why Fallows has to gobut I think it went down little by little. There’s no need to worry about him. »
Additionally, the performances doomed Fallows. Neither Fernando Alonso nor Lance Stroll They were able to score points in the last three races: “Their race was obvious: “Their exit was obvious. “I think they expected a lot more, she came in and had a lot of influence at the start, the car was a rocket, at least at the start.”
“However, the wheat is then separated from the chaff. The difference between many others, and also Adrian Newey, and now you can see a little bit in Red Bull also that spirit, that forward thinking, that invention, that reorientation every time and resolve This is where Adrian Newey seems simply incredible He didn’t succeed, he left Red Bull to break away and take a role on his own. followed suit, you could imagine it didn’t fit anymore“, says Michael Schumacher’s brother.
Aston Martin’s improvements have been disastrous since the Imola Grand Prix: “The car has not evolved further, on the contrary, it has stagnated or even gone backwards. If you know the team, its ambitions, the season etc., then it is clear that the pressure is increasing, particularly on investors and the sponsors. I expected more.
