Aston Martin are not expecting the upcoming Spanish Grand Prix to be the strongest venue for the AMR24.
Fernando Alonso has acknowledged that Aston Martin will need a positive surprise in the upcoming Spanish Grand Prix to remain competitive. Despite a strong showing in Canada where Alonso and Lance Stroll finished in the top positions, the team has struggled this season compared to their successful previous year. The AMR24 is currently unable to keep up with teams like Red Bull, Ferrari, McLaren, and Mercedes, although Aston Martin is confident in the progress they have been making.
