Aston Martin aiming direct the middle zone of the Formula 1 World Cup grid in this present 2023. It was even complicated, since the team had just been seventh last year and when he signed Fernando Alonso they could barely pass Williams. However, in Bahrain they not only got what they wanted, but even they got on the podium thanks to the Asturian and they had, after Redbull, the second fastest car on the track.

Yeah, everything looks more than good for Alonso’s project to the Silverstone team. They have proven to be strong, they don’t wear out the tyres, they are fast, they brake well, cornering and traction are not a problem… and also their rivals a priori as alpine and McLaren for now they did not show up for the “battle”.

French they insist they can be the fourth team of the world cup. So far, in Bahrain, Pierre Gasly has managed to score but Esteban Ocon has continued to accumulate penalties to end up giving up. His rhythm, low. Its virtues, unknown.

“If we want to be a leading team…”

In Woking they can say exactly the same, as their first test was a disaster. Oscar Piastri has not finished either, and Lando Norris was lost throughout the Grand Prix. In the same tests, and everything had been seen coming for weeks.

They didn’t even see each other the way they wanted to. But we’re talking about McLaren, and Lando Norris. Also by Oscar Piastri. From the UK, in the words of the English driver, they are already clear that they need to improve and they have also set a date.

The one who will be Azerbaijan GP. This year, Baku will be the fourth race of the season, during a weekend that will take place on the last weekend of April. Yes, there is still time… and to know if the sequel will also have improvements for these dates.

For now, Norris warned and left McLaren a good stick: “If we want to be a top team, we should have started the year with the new parts that are about to arrive”.

“This is the car we should have started with”

“The car we want will arrive in Baku. It’s the one we should have started the season with,” insists Norris on ‘Planet F1’.

We will have to see if this renewed McLaren can fight in this large middle zone in which Alfa Romeo slipped and the one from which he left, almost without entering it, Aston Martin.

Those of Silverstone seem closer mercedes there by Ferrari that of Alpine and others… no matter what they say about Enstone.
