Missed time check and just woke up to see end of FP3. Would be better to miss Quali also looking at FP3 times.

Aston only better than Haas, its incredible how they can make this. Sorry but, im done.

Both Aston Martin should be out in Q1. Will be a long season. Its amazing.They made a better car to drive, but, they forgot the downforce.

Alot of understeer in the last sector, Alonso can't get the car to turn. They kept increasing front wing flap. Finally he asked for 4 more turns of front wing and he still had understeer. Maybe something wrong with the flap adjustment ?

Sounds like an aero issue the flap adjustment can't overcome.

Haha, Alonso giving 2023 memories in that session

I hope Alonso’s floor isnt damaged he has been absolutely on it! Dispelling all doubt!

Yeah, shame. Looked like much more was possible without the damaged floor, happy with that!

[KimiRai]

FP2 to FP3 setup changes were a disaster. But FP3 to Qualy worked great. Then Alonso damaged the floor (2nd consecutive year in Australia he does this). What a rollercoaster...

Drivers become the problem in Aston once the car improves, this was a Q3 car. Has been more noticeable since 2024. I am sure Cowell and Newey know this

Alonso could have got into Q3 but looks like floor damage prevented him as his Q1 time was faster. Still a good effort with a damaged car. Car came alive and was trading blows with the Ferrari and Mercs in Alonso’s hands! Hopefully this new found pace can come good tomorrow too!

Yeah we have to be happy with that, could have been better but could have been a lot worse. The car has some pace in it!

Dude, what? Alonso was on the used tyres and had a big snap of oversteer before turn 10, it wasn't a driver error. Last part of the Q2 was a mess, they waited to long in the pits.

I think your being a little dramatic calling it a q3 car considering stroll didnt come close. I think Alonso was driving out of his skin to make it seem like a Q3 car but the limit was close as the car snapped on him twice when he was going faster in Q2 that damaged the floor. He was asking more than it could give. Calling Alonso a problem is wild when it was him who made it possible for the car to get close in the first place

Exactly! Alonso didnt make a mistake but the car snapped mid corner and his reactions basically stopped it from being an aeroplane crash. He had to drive out of his skin to make this car do things it clearly can’t handle. No way is it a q3 car lol

Would have loved to see where it would have been without the damage (Alonso had a big margin to Stroll in Q1 and then with the damage could only match him in Q2), potentially could have been best of the rest but hard to say.
