With Dan Fallows (ex-Red Bull) Eric Blandin (formerly of Mercedes), a titanic investment and the stellar signing of Fernando Alonso from Alpine after confirming the withdrawal of Sebastian Vettehe, astonmartin trusts to hit the table at the World Cup Formula 1 looking forward to 2023.
The British team wants to run a “aggressive strategy” in a car that will be “completely different” from that of 2022 with the aim of avoiding the handicap that has weighed them down this past season: speed in one turn.
Despite having excellent tire management, the tires do not get hot enough in one turn, which has led to dozens of headaches in classification this year.
In contrast, the engine, gearbox and rear suspension form a perfect symbiosis that endows the Aston Martin of a traction and a power of exit of curves worthy of the high zone.
Furthermore, contrary to Alpine, reliability is a hallmark of the british teamwhose pilots have only required three power units in 2022 and have not been penalized for it.
In statements collected by ‘As’, Tom McCulloughAston Martin’s chief engineer, has analyzed the problem: “It is a question that we ask ourselves many times. We suffered a lot at one turnbut we’ve done quite well managing the tires in the races.”
“We do a lot of analysis on our rear end or power limits. To understand the low and medium speed corners and to know what our weaknesses are for the 23 or 24 races of next year,” he added.
Of course, at the same time that they will carry out a “aggressive strategy”, They want to execute a seamless plan: “We don’t have the fastest car on the straights and we lack in some areas as well. we want a complete car“.
