Aston Martin AMR24

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

Can we start calling these "upgrades" downgrades?? I mean, I know they aren't meant to improve the car overall, they are just the base of the AMR25, but they are making the car more difficult to drive, specially creating a lot of understeer.

Also, bad upgrades for Mercedes as well, they had a good sprint qualy but in the sprint itself they were eating their tyres and in normal qualy they weren't particularly fast. They also made the car more unstable. What's wrong with Mercedes wind tunnel?? Can't wait to finally use our tunnel and see if that was causing correlation issues. Also, do you think Mercedes rear suspesion causes all these tyre deg issues? Cause its been the same for us the whole year.
These comments should be in the Aston Martin team room, not the AMR24.

In the end it seems they went for Austin front wing, Hungary sidepods and Imola floor. Frankenstein just like last year

Where did you learn that? Thought I saw the Austin sidepods on Alonso's car in the F1 TV feed.

Nevermind, it wasn't the Imola floor but rather Suzuka's:

Aston Martin
In Austin, the fifth underbody of the year was conjured up from the hat. The stations until then: start of the season, Suzuka, Imola, Budapest and Austin. Because nothing worked in Austin and the Aston Martin was only really fast in two corners, but sometimes lost dramatically in the others, a big comparison test was held in Mexico. There were three sub-floors to choose from: Suzuka, Budapest and Austin. The winner was Suzuka, the oldest model. The drivers immediately recognized progress and would have landed in Q3 without the red flag. Grade: 2

Aston Martin went away empty-handed for the second time in a row, but Mexico was an important step forward for the team. A big underbody comparison test ended with the Suzuka soil being the best. All other parts of the car were Austin. The drivers immediately felt a calmer driving behavior. The red flag in Q2 cost Alonso and Stroll the Q3.
Not sure why it says "All other parts of the car were Austin" as sidepods are clearly not Austin spec. Either Suzuka or Budapest.

They already had reverted the floor entry back to pre-Hungry.

Austin - reintroduces some of the changes they brought in Imola with a twists... That's the direction they want to go but they can make that drive-able.
