Adrian Newey’s worst ever F1 car (isn’t an Aston Martin) – plus the best terrible car in history
There have been four F1 sessions run at the Australian Grand Prix this weekend. Lance Stroll has completed a total of 16 laps. The AMR26 might not be the most disastrous car Adrian Newey has ever designed, as Aston Martin faced alarming issues at pre-season testing in Bahrain. The team revealed serious problems with the car, engine, gearbox, and aero designs. Aston Martin is experiencing one of the most challenging periods in the modern F1 era. The crisis reminds fans of Newey’s McLaren disaster with the MP4-18, a car that never raced in F1 due to multiple issues. These setbacks show the challenges and complexities of designing competitive F1 cars in a high-stakes environment.
