The English designer chose Montecarlo to present herself in the pits Aston Martin. The main objective, the development of the car for next year
The Monaco GP marks the return of Adrian Newey to the pound of the pits, with Aston Martin, the team in which he officially started his work in early March after leaving Red Bull a year ago. It is interesting to note that the brilliant English designer debuts “in green” in Munich, a track that by its nature often does not reward the best single -seater. In reality it was precisely its precise choice, as the small of the operational spaces in the Monegasque garage in fact imposes a very close coexistence between the various teams, therefore it is considered the best opportunity for those who want to observe closely the state of the art of solutions adopted by rivals, not only to draw inspiration from it, but also to understand the technical level chosen by the various teams this season.
“Old Style” analysis
–
It is, we could say, a sort of Old Style analysis, which actually reflects in a precise way the modus operandi of Newey, extremely personal and out of time. In fact, his constant use of a technigraph is known to draw the single -seater on paper in every detail. A prerogative that in fact requires three people exclusively dedicated to digitalization and translation in CAD of his designs, but Adrian believes that having the opportunity to draw and possibly correct, changing the lines of his drawings during the design phase, makes his technical-creative process, faster.
Project 2026
–
Returning to his debut on the track this weekend, the reasons at the base are obviously linked to the 2026 project to which Newey dedicates night time and the integration of various components intended for the car next year on the Amr25. Like Andy Cowell himself, Team Principal Aston Martin, had recently declared the single -seater of Alonso and Stroll is destined to assume the role of traveling laboratory in the second part of the season, integrating some components intended for 2026, but which makes sense to test on the track also on the current car. If, in fact, the regulatory frame 2026 will be completely different from the current, both for the power unit and for aerodynamics, there will be, contrary to the most widespread thought, points of contact between the two concepts of car. Especially on a mechanical level, or suspension. It will therefore be interesting to observe, in the progressive integration of 2026 solutions on the Aston Martin Amr25 laboratory, what the key points of Newey’s project may be for next year. The genius is back … rivals are notified.
