Alonso promised more aero efficient 2024 Aston Martin F1 car
The Aston Martin F1 team admits that their car has been lacking in efficiency this year, leading to a difficult weekend at Monza. Fernando Alonso had his worst performance of the season, finishing ninth, while Lance Stroll failed to score points in 16th place. Alonso has urged the team to address this issue, and Performance Director Tom McCullough agrees that it should be a priority. The team initially struggled in straight-line speed, but made improvements throughout the year. However, McCullough acknowledges that significant changes to the current car are unlikely, and their focus is now on developing next year’s model to be more efficient. Monza highlighted the challenge of finding the right balance between downforce and straight-line speed, as different sections of the track require different setups.
