a race appears marked in red in the calendar by Aston Martin. One of the most mythical, because Monaco may well be the place of victory number 33 by Fernando Alonso in F1. The reason? That DRS and top speed don’t matter there, and everything will be a matter of aerodynamics and hands… and there the team and the two-time world champion they are left over
However, there are also three other weekends that have been noted. And no, not for the same reason as that of Monaco but for the complete opposite. Because The Aston Martin keeps on slacking off As far as Red Bull is concerned, in top speed and in DRS efficiency. That makes tracks with long straights…
There are three tests. One, of course, is Monza. The temple of speed is not called like that for no reason, and it is that the cars are completely unloaded for a Grand Prix that hardly has any curves.
Another is Belgium. Spaunlike Zandvoort, is another track where the issue of DRS and top speed matters and not exactly little.
Third, Las Vegas. The great addition to the calendar in this 2023 is not only a mystery to Aston Martin, but to everyone else.
“We still have time”
