Aston Martin has revealed its plan for this week’s five-day test in Barcelona.
Aston Martin has announced that they will not be participating in all three days of the official shakedown test in Barcelona this week.
The team, based in Silverstone, faced potential delays with their AMR26, resulting in their appearance on the track being postponed to the latter part of the test.
Aston Martin confirmed that they will be at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya this week, but their running will not commence until Thursday at the earliest, with plans also in place for running on Friday.
As a result, the British team will only have the opportunity to conduct two days of running at most, despite being allowed three days like other teams.
A statement from Aston Martin indicated, “The AMR26 will be in Barcelona later this week for its shakedown. Our intention is to run Thursday and Friday.”
