2025 Aston Martin | Aramco F1 Team

It's a serious bullcrap of a car ....just abandon it and focus on 2026

The funny thing that at winter test they could go 1:30.7 and now even McLaren can't do 1:29 lap.

Sky F1 had Aston last on their predicted qualy sim earlier, so getting out of Q1 will be a challenge.

Sky F1 had Aston last on their predicted qualy sim earlier, so getting out of Q1 will be a challenge.

They have 4 sets soft, if I am not wrong, but likely plan to use 3 sets already in Q1, as they went already out. They are in trouble.

Don't know why they used 3 sets with ALO, or why their simulations are that bad. He had the speed for the normal "2 runs" programme. Now it's just a battle with HUL about P14, with only used tyres left.

After all it's about the same pace as in the previous races, just a tight midfield.

Alonso making miracles again. That's it. 0.7s ahead of stroll. He's in Q2 and he'll be the last there, since he's got no fresh softs left.

[FNTC]

Alonso getting this car into Q2 is insane

[diffuser]

First pass in Q2 on used softs. Thank Ocon for scrapibg a bunch of other teams softs.

[FNTC]

Will be at least P14, and if someone else messes up maybe even higher.

[diffuser]

2nd run looks like used softs too.

[mvfad]

It looks like Alonso will be able to get through to Q2 without any major problems, maybe he'll get 14th. And Stroll will stay in Q1 between 17th and 19th... Nothing out of the ordinary.

bingo!

[FNTC]

Yeah, I think they used all new softs to get out of Q1? Still great job with the car they have.

[-wkst-]

The car was not that bad, ALO was in the mix, STR is awful the whole weekend. 2nd run in Q1 would have been already enough to go through.

No idea why they gave ALO the same strategy as STR, who needed indeed 3 Sets.

[OnEcRiTiCaL]

Alonso left McLaren, they became front runners,Alonso left Alpine they got wings, Alonso left Aston in 26 they WC in 27

[FNTC]

Seems like Hulkenberg got his time deleted after qualy for track limits in Q1 so Alonso got P13. That's whats on the FIA provisional classification.
