Fernando Alonso has urged Aston Martin to ensure that it maximises each race weekend in the 2025 F1 season no matter how competitive the AMR25 proves to be.
Alonso’s arrival in 2023 marked a successful start for Aston Martin with six podiums in the first eight races, but the team struggled to maintain the momentum, facing a significant 186-point decline and no top-three finishes in the last season. In an attempt to reverse the trend in 2025, Aston Martin is introducing the AMR25 car with substantial changes compared to its predecessor. Alonso remains optimistic, emphasizing the importance of the diverse circuit characteristics in the early races to evaluate the new car’s performance accurately. Despite acknowledging the long shot for race wins until 2026, Alonso believes Aston Martin can still challenge the leading teams in the upcoming close competition. With a focus on details and maximizing the car’s potential each race, Aston Martin aims to improve its standing in the Constructors’ Championship and establish a strong foundation for the future.
