Adrian Newey Exposes How Far Aston Martin Fell
Aston Martin’s future in Formula 1 looked bleak...but then Adrian Newey turned up. Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsAston Martin nearly missed the boat on the 2026 F1 regulations before legendary designer Adrian Newey arrived to overhaul the project. Newey’s arrival came just in time with the team WAY behind on development thanks to, perhaps, major crises the last two seasons. How IS he taking control of every aspect of the AMR26? Why do both Fernando Alonso and Andy Cowell believe this could be a turning point for the team? Has the team managed to turn the corner simply with his presence in place...it certainly seems so!The drama of Lance Stroll’s negativity is there though, plus the pressure of Alonso’s legacy, we cover the real challenges here and what needs to happen for Aston Martin to avoid another season of frustration. Discover what Newey’s ‘design trance’ really means for the future...and if he has saved us from losing Alonso next season. #f1 #fernandoalonso #lancestroll #formula1 #formulaone #f12025 #f12026 #astonmartinf1team #astonmartin #adriannewey #f1news #f1latest #f1updates #f1drama #formula12025 Can't watch the ladder?
