Fernando Alonso has added three consecutive podiums in the first three races of the year: in Bahrain, in Saudi Arabia and in Australia. Always third, behind the two Red Bulls and in the last race behind the Mercedes of lewis hamilton. Some magnificent results considering what the green team had come from.
Because when Alonso signed with Aston Martin last summer, his position in the constructors’ classification was the penultimate. An abysmal difference and almost a miracle that is not usual in Formula 1. But that is not enough to Lawrence Stroll, the owner.
has revealed Mike Krack that for Stroll “it is not enough” everything that is happening: “Lawrence is delighted with the podiums, but this is not enough for his ambition, he wants more”.
“We have yet to identify any weaknesses on the car, but we will have some new parts in Baku, Imola, Montreal and some at Silverstone, although we will bring each small increment as soon as it is ready, rather than waiting to lump everything together in big packages. We have to make improvements to continue as we are because if you stand still you go backwards,” said the Aston Martin boss as soon as he finished the podium at Albert Park.
Krack is convinced that with all the improvements that are to come, many things can change in the World Cup: “I don’t think we still have a full image“Of all the cars and more because in Australia everyone was afraid of what could happen to the tyres, they all managed their speed, so we need more data…”.
“The margin is very narrow between allalmost all the middle zone is in two or three tenths, so I hope that nobody gets sad without some we are fifth and sixth”, sentenced.
Stroll’s project is more than ambitious in F1 with Aston Martin. And now it is clear after these words from Krack in which he assures that the big boss is not satisfied with seeing Alonso third.
