the podium of Fernando Alonso last weekend in his first race with Aston Martin confirms that the pharaonic inversion of Lawrence Stroll in Formula 1 is paying off… and sooner than they themselves anticipated.
They have hired almost double the number of employees, they are building a state-of-the-art factory with its own wind tunnel, they have hired the great ‘gurus’ of Red Bull and Mercedes…: Aston Martin He wants to win and, after what was seen in Sakhir, he wants to do it as soon as possible.
As reported by ‘Formu1a.uno’, Lawrence Strollowner of the green team and father of the Asturian’s partner, Lance, has promised to increase its investment.
Currently, the Silverstone team has a notorious positive difference with respect to its competitors (Red Bull, Ferrari and Mercedes) due to the fact that they have the 100% of the hours in the wind tunnel given that in 2022 they were in seventh position in the Constructors’ World Championship.
Alonso himself is aware that this handicap will be phased out in 2024so he will squeeze the team to the maximum to get all the ‘juice’ out of the wind tunnel this season.
With money everything is easier Lawrence Stroll he has plenty of zeros and dreams of podiums. The Canadian wants to throw the house out the window to give him a good sword to the samurai and his son… and in the F1 paddock the uncertainty surrounding Aston Martin doesn’t stop growing.
