Red Bull has been very hard with Aston Martin. The current energy drink team World Champion in pilots and constructors thanks to max verstappen and the almighty RB18, has loaded against Fernando Alonso’s team to the point of accusing, or insinuating, that the AMR23 is a plagiarism of his car.
Everything has been after seeing the potential of the car of Fernando Alonso both in the Bahrain tests and in the first Grand Prix of the season, where Fernando Alonso reached the podium displaying a pace that could only be surpassed by the Red Bulls of Max Verstappen and Sergio Pérez.
And it is that the march of dan fallows It has produced a great resentment in the Milton Keynes brand. Whoever was a leading member of the aerodynamics of the blue car went to Aston Martin… along with other workers at the Red Bull factory.
AlphaTauri joins ‘the party’
Such has been the case that AlphaTauri, the ‘subsidiary’ of those of energy drinks, has claimed, as has Helmut Marko, that the AMR23 is “the RB18 but painted green.”
The Austrian, in fact, even said that in the podium from Bahrain there were “three Red Bulls, but one with a different engine”, in clear reference to an Aston Martin that has a Mercedes power unit inside.
“These are humorous comments…”
Now, on the ‘Formel1.de’ Youtube channel, he has nuanced to such an extent that it seems to be that it was all ‘joking’.
“It wasn’t an accusation. It’s not meant to be. They are funny comments,” he says.
But he keeps dropping it: “If we look closely, the Aston Martin is the car more like Red Bull”.
We have barely had a Formula 1 World Cup race and Red Bull has started and to the dialectical war with Aston Martin… Who knows what happens if suddenly Fernando Alonso or Lance Stroll it gives them to win a test.
