2025 Aston Martin | Aramco F1 Team

[TyreSlip]

FP3 is in the day time so not really that representative, but its crazy how they seem to always perform better on Fridays... Are they really good at setting up the car on Fridays, or really bad at improving it from the initial setup? Or running too conservative ride heights on Saturdays? Hopefully qualifying is more like FP2 than FP3...

Alonso has always been good at finding the limits of the car earlier than other drivers.

Stroll out in Q3. Alonso just made it to Q2.

difficult to survive in Q2. is it ride hight issue again?

[FNTC]

Some people improved under yellow kicking stroll out didnt they?

[wiktor977]

If they actually raised the ride height then I have no idea why. Mercedes and Ferrari are basically running with no ground clearance

[FNTC]

The mclaren is dragging on the ground with sparks going all the time too. Protecting the plank better somehow?

Cowell on Sky saying the 3rd sector is the problem for them. Both drivers losing 2-3 tenths in one corner.

Feels like all other teams found a second overnight, but I think part of that is other drivers not pushing as much on Friday.

Maybe they wear the plank more evenly, so they do not lose so much material to get banned

Several cars noted for yellow flag infringement. Investigation after the session. So dumb, what if someone else should have gotten into q2?

They found some time but it looks like Aston didn't gain any time or even lost some. They push on Friday as everyone else

Alonso found 3 tenths in S2. Not sure where that came from ....

[FNTC]

Very solid first run in q2. Might be hope for q3 again with these lap times. Just 12 hundreths off Lando. But lando on old tires i guess.

New boots for 2nd run. Fist run in Q2 was on new boots as well.

Alonso dragging the Aston into Q3 again. Very well done.
