Aston Martin "very flattered" by link to Adrian Newey, says team boss
Newey visited the Silverstone HQ and negotiated a salary with owner Lawrence Stroll, The Telegraph reported this week.Krack told Sky Sports: “Honestly, when you see how many names have been linked to our project, and you see how old the project is, it is a credit to Lawrence’s vision, to Honda and Aramaco, and all the partners that we have.“A couple of years ago if you linked these names to our team, nobody would have taken it seriously.“No.
The hope is that tech genius Newey could give a major advantage to a team aiming to be the dominant force under the regulations.For now, Aston Martin’s on-track progress from early-2023 has stalled, while Mercedes have overtaken them. “Interesting parallels, we started the season off similarly to them,” Krack said after practice was topped by Lewis Hamilton at the F1 Spanish Grand Prix.“Lately, we have had a better understanding of our car.”
Krack downplayed the chances of his drivers Fernando Alonso or Lance Stroll this weekend in Barcelona. “We are realistic. Coming here, we knew this would be one of the more difficult tracks for us,” he said.“We’ve seen that if conditions are right, or you get it right with good calls when others don’t make good calls, you can bring points home.
