Aston Martin boss Mike Krack denies that the team is “lost” after recent decisions to start Grands Prix from the pit-lane in Formula 1. The team brought an upgrade package to the United States but had limited practice time due to the Sprint weekend. Both Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll started from the pit-lane, with Alonso using the pre-Austin package. In Mexico, Stroll also started from the pit-lane after set-up changes were made. Krack emphasizes that these decisions are not unreasonable but are part of pragmatic engineering discussions to understand the findings and make progress. The team aims to improve the car and adapt to different track characteristics.
