TBC?
Saudi Arabia
Abu Dhabi

Any ideas which tracks might suit us? I've heard Saudi Arabia might be fast/flowing one that could suit our car. We need to get Lando and Seidl on the top step of the podium .

Russia - good for us
Turkey- good for us
USA -good for us
Mexico - mix
Brazil - mix towards bad for us
TBC?
Saudi Arabia uknown
Abu Dhabi good for us

This is my take
To sum it all up, Long straights, fast corners and hard braking zones swing into our car characteristics

I don't think Brazil will be too bad for us, ran very well there in 2019. There's a couple of slow corners that expose the cars weakness, but the rest is a mix of power/braking with medium-high levels of downforce. I think it will be good.

So you are saying there's a chance?

Honestly it seems like all the tracks are good for us. Maybe with exception of Mexico which will probably be worse due to Mercedes engine and track layout.

I think we can get a few podiums if all cards play into our hand, lets face it, we can mix with the top 2 teams but to beat them regularly we still need more raw pace.

Hopefully we can move ahead of Ferrari in the next couple of races so that the team can take more risks in the remainder of the season. Often times I felt the team prioritizes midfield battle and doesn't put up a fight against top teams. It was to be expected earlier but we need to start changing our mentality.

Super impressed by Russell, watch till the end. He somehow knows Daniel won the race and congratulated him and complimented his drive to win.

Tit of tat I know
But isn’t it sad that when you are announcing the start of your new building project that should be all about the excitement of Aston Martins new factory.... you have a pop at Ron Dennis and the MTC

Does anyone else get the feeling that the stroll F1 team look at others more than any other team instead of getting their head down and plough their own vision/success?

Could be. Could be that the question that was put to him was loaded, could be that we just take it as a complement and that he is using Mclaren as some sort of Benchmark.

He's a flamboyant billionaire high on his own success, so fair play to him, he knows more than us!

Agreed, this is classic Lawrence Stroll. I read the article and wondered what the point to all this was,” This is the reverse of what Ron Dennis did with [architect] Norman Foster, with the McLaren Technology Centre.” He’ll probably end up with a reverse of McLaren’s trophy cabinet as well.

It's an attention getter Drivel article. Otherwise, who cares about an few building going up?

Often Sprinkles of rain in Brazil that make it hard to predict.

Definitely. Still my favourite track on the calendar, although Monza has grown on me!

It’s been reported that Losail in Qatar will be added. Based on the layout, I don’t think it’ll suit the 35M.

I'm looking forward to the memes when Lando misses the WDC by 6 points...
