Krack: Aston Martin needs to "give our drivers a better car"
The Aston Martin F1 team had a difficult weekend at the Italian GP, struggling with their low downforce package. Fernando Alonso qualified 10th and finished 9th, while Lance Stroll finished 16th. This performance allowed Ferrari to overtake Aston Martin in the constructors’ championship standings. Team Principal Mike Krack acknowledged the team’s weakness at high-speed tracks and emphasized the need to address it for the upcoming Las Vegas event in November. Krack mentioned that they have updates in the pipeline for the remaining races of the season. He also praised the efforts of Alonso and Stroll, who had to contend with a tricky car and a one-stop strategy, which left them exhausted. Krack expressed optimism about the upcoming Singapore GP, as he believes the revised layout will suit their car better. However, he emphasized the need to improve their performance on tracks like Monza.
