Is there one minus one contender left for the championship? F1 team bets for the 2027 season
One of the most anticipated projects of the 2026 season is Aston Martin with the first car designed by Adrian Newey. In the summer of 2025, the brilliant coach joined the team and his experience in reading the rules already made itself felt.
According to sources, the project ran into difficulties: data from the wind tunnel and simulations were inaccurate, so Newey ordered the wind tunnel to be reconfigured and the software rewritten. This made it possible to identify weak points of the concept and make changes to the design of the car without disrupting the program.
Aston Martin sees the 2026 season as a transition period: In the first half of the year, work will progress in two directions: optimizing the layout and integration of the power plant, as well as improving aerodynamic efficiency, and the final configuration of the car is expected to be done by the summer holidays.
All preparations for the first half of 2026 will form the basis of the 2027 car, on which all hopes are pinned.
