Aston Martin and Honda were tight lipped when quizzed about reliability upgrades brought to the Miami Grand Prix
Aston Martin team principal Mike Krack didn’t reveal specific details about reliability upgrades for the Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix following a challenging start to the season. The Aston Martin-Honda partnership struggled with reliability issues and health risks due to vibrations from the Honda power unit affecting the chassis and drivers Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll. Despite a five-week break for testing and countermeasures by Honda, Krack remained cautious about expectations for improvements. He mentioned progress in reliability and vibration issues since the earlier races but emphasized the need for further steps in performance. Aston Martin’s focus is on gradual improvement in both reliability and performance, as they aim to keep pace with their competitors in the development race of the season.
