2023 Aston Martin | Aramco | Cognizant F1 Team

[NAPI10]

DRS issue definitely affected qualifying for AMs

[selvam_e2002]

They have not improved from Q1 to Q3 just few tenth but other teams are nearly 1 second. Not sure it is related to Rear wing.

[NAPI10]

Will get a realistic picture tomorrow once they resolved the DRS issue

[Juzh]

Team seems resolved the drag issue with new RW.Car has descent top speed now

Yeah, they were actually there or thereabouts with RB at the DRS line at around 320 kmh.

[GoranF1]

This is not true at all. There are cameras in every teams’s windtunnel.

Of Course they could find a way to cheat... AGAIN. but if they get caught ....

The last time we were in a discussion ( ) you tried to convince me that it would be impossible for Mercedes to supply a different PU to Aston Martin because the holy FIA was so good at their checks.

Now it seems like the shoe is on the other foot when I say the FIA are holy and good at their checks

Still standby both claims.

[The Prodigy]

Both cars had a DRS issue?

There's going to be a pretty big scandal one day if so

Yeah it seems DRS issues in qualifying, haven't had the time to check laps and all but Mike Krack has confirmed it in interview.

Saw it on F1TV, DRS light kept going on and off as Alonso was told to keep trying it.

[Chanman141]

Pretty strong result if is the case the DRS wasn’t working properly

[KimiRai]

Some great news to counteract the bad DRS news: Giorgio Piola says that the greens will soon bring important new features and that there is talk of a really heavy package of improvements.
I'm guessing he is refering to the Imola upgrades we've known for a while, but according to german sources there should also be some performance updates coming to Miami as well.

[selvam_e2002]

After re watching the F1 TV Alonso onboard camera for Q3, his race engineer told him that without those DRS issue, they could be easily P4.

[KimiRai]

Saturday with the same issues so its likely all weekend will be like this. Great teamwork with the tow at least.

[NAPI10]

It’s working intermittently;that’s tough to analyze
