There is nothing worse what has happened to himto Aston Martin in Canada. That what has happened to the team Fernando Alonso. The British, in the Grand Prix chosen to carry a nice package of improvements, they will go practically blind for the race.
For when it’s time to fight for points. Because if there is someone who has been harmed, and not exactly a little,the non-holding of Free Practice 1in the Gilles Villeneuve, it’s an Aston Martin. Floor improvements, engine cover improvements. Pontoon improvements. Yeah, improvements, improvements, improvements… Improvements that they will only have tested, dry before the Canadian test, in the wind tunnel.
Because rain is coming in canada. Because the only dry session was going to be this one, Free Practice 1. Some in which everyone hurried to get out, but after two minutes she was already stopped due to a problem with the car by Pierre Gasley.
To trust the wind tunnel
electrical failure. Easy fix for Alpine. But it was not so easy, in fact it was not fixable, the issue of the cameras on the track. Could not resume and that is a problem for those who, like Aston Martin, carry so many new features.
They carry so much that only the wind tunnel has seen. Who knows how the correlation is between what is seen there with what is later found on the track. for now, everything has gone well in that sense, but…
But to know. And so they will race. To know if the engine cover works. Who knows if the soil works. Who knows if everything goes the way they think it will go. Between one thing and another, when Alonso returned to the garage they were already touching the rear wing.
It is what it is. Who knows if in that half an hour of more than Free 2 the track is dry, but the forecast is what it is. Water in the afternoon from Canada, and water also on Saturday. On Sunday… on Sunday everything is possible.
