Aston Martin hasn’t officially upgraded its Formula 1 car in the last two months, and likely won’t do so until July at the earliest.
The Adrian Newey-designed AMR26, which is Aston’s first Honda-powered car, has been lacking performance and fighting newcomer Cadillac at the back of the field. With reliability trouble compounding the issues – though the situation has been improving – Fernando Alonso has spearheaded the team’s effort with a highest result of 16th in sprint qualifying at the Canadian Grand Prix and 15th under the chequered flag in both Miami races.
