Aston Martin has confirmed it will continue experimenting with its 2023 Formula 1 car during this weekend’s Abu Dhabi Grand
Aston Martin introduced a significant upgrade package in the United States in an effort to improve their standings. However, they encountered difficulties in dialing in the updates during the Sprint weekend, resulting in a double Q1 exit. As a result, they reverted Fernando Alonso to an older specification of the car for comparison tests. After further evaluations and assembling a selection of parts from both specifications, Aston Martin saw Alonso return to the podium in Brazil. While they have made progress, Aston Martin acknowledges that they are not completely in control of their recent problems and still have a lot to learn. They will continue to focus on their own performance and aim to have a fast car in Abu Dhabi. The team believes that the qualifying session in the previous race was not a true reflection of their pace and that they will show their true performance in the race.
