Helmut Marko suspects Adrian Newey factor in Aston Martin’s sudden F1 progress
Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko suspects that Aston Martin’s sudden improvement in performance is due to the influence of Adrian Newey. Aston Martin has shown a stronger performance in recent races, with Fernando Alonso finishing fifth at the Hungarian Grand Prix and the team appearing to be the second-fastest at Zandvoort. Marko expressed surprise at Aston Martin’s pace and acknowledged Newey’s potential impact. However, Aston Martin was less competitive in final practice, with Lance Stroll leading the team in eighth place. Red Bull, on the other hand, is aiming to bounce back from their challenging race in Hungary and expects a competitive battle with Aston Martin and Mercedes.
