Taking into account the Marko’s statements saying that “there were three Red Bulls on the podiumonly the last one with a different engine!”, the most talked-about topic in the ‘paddock’ in recent days has been the similarity of the AMR 23 with the RB19.
the guru of Aston Martin worked for 15 years in the Austrian team, and there he learned from Adrian Newley. However, Dan Followstook many technical aspects of his former team as a reference to improve them and try to make a single-seater integrating the latest innovations that have brought a third and sixth place.
Success at Aston Martin It has not gone down well with Red Bull, which after the words of Marko HelmutNewey joined giving a dart to the British and Christian Horner, the last to join this trend: “They say imitation is the greatest form of flattery And it’s a good thing that the old car runs so well. According to the result of the race, they are the second strongest team,” he said.
He added that “it’s flattering to see the resemblance of that car to ours, it was great to see all three on the podium.”
He also hinted that with his experience this sudden change in Aston Martin is somewhat strange: “I’ve been around long enough to see that things change fast and i still think these cars are still relatively immature and as the teams develop and updates come in, Things will change“.
These criticisms from Red Bull representatives are due to the panic of returning to compete with Fernando Alonso and a car that improved in 2.4 seconds compared to 2022.
