Cardille still doesn't work at Aston, and not even this year, What a news.

Ugh... any other surprises?


If you remember last year, Ferrari wanted a full year of gardening from him. That would have taken him to June/July 2025. That AM F1 was trying to negotiate an earlier release. Then someone said he would start in Jan, like someone had negotiated early release. Obviously not, guess he's still coming in June/July.

I kind of forget. I really thought he was working with the team since January.

BTW, I wasn't targeting you with that. Just speaking out in general ....

We all kind of thought he was, till we started to hear noise that he wasn't.

Looking forward to the first Grand Prix in a weird way. Have no clue how Quick the aston is in race or qualy trim. Definitely the weirdest testing programme from a team I can ever remember.

Hopefully the new simulator will help like it did in qatar and Abu Dhabi last year

They Knewn all time where they are https://soymotor.com/f1/noticias/alonso ... de-vueltas , so, some people think 2025 is transitional year to Aston and other think the AMR25 is a blanck canva waiting for Newey https://www.planetf1.com/news/ted-kravi ... ey-arrival . Early today Alonso said is waiting for changes in the car and not because of that new flex wings regulations. Another though year and for us, just pray and wait. for at least, we have Adrian Newey next week.. Or like Cardille, we'll find this wekend he is not coming yet hahaha

On Sky F1 today in the end of the last session they were discussing which team should be happiest (Ferrari) and saddest after the test. Ruth Boscombe and Bernie Collins said Aston should be saddest, and Croft seemed to agree. So lots for Newey to work on from Monday, unless they have been hiding their cards.

Newey will focus 99,9% on the 2026 car.

Maybe, but I'm sure Lawrence will push him to at least improve the AMR25 a bit too.

Newey will have total control in the factory, 100%.

He knows 2025 is toast. He will focus for 2026 in order to deliver a car competitive for the win, at least aero wise.
