“This is a negativity. We’ll be a little blind”

Adrian New This is a great hope Fernando Alonso Y. At Aston Martin de Cara 2026. He is considered a better car engineer from F1, “intellectual in aerodynamics, but to go to the car’s construction and the smallest details, as described by the head, what the tuning of the FP1, FP2 and FP3 Aston Martin, Andy Cowell. He created two champion cars in the last two changes of the F1 rules, of 4 titles of VettelAnd its Verstappen. And came to Aston Martin with that goal, to create a winning car Alonso And take advantage of the enormous change of the rules that open next year with different cars. Now, it has published the media in Monaco, in his first race with the team, in an interview with the International Press in the table round, like ‘Motorsport’ or ‘as’ as” ‘.

However, the British himself tried to minimize expectations to talk a little about the major weaknesses that he still had Aston Martin has moved from a small structure, to the mega factory, the new Wind Tunnel, built its own gearbox for the first time next year And that is 2026 Mercedes has its unique engine with Honda after being a client. And to it You need to add huge talent recruitment propaganda In recent years, this course has not stopped. All of this must be enough, as well as the new simulator.

New Wind Tunnel gave positive results From scratch. There he map the last details of the novels submitted by Aston Martin in Icola last week, and for the first time in two years, the team will improve the team instead of re -entering the development. However, the NewVe is more concernedAnd it does not hide it as a problem, because it is a crucial part of the creation and development of the car 2026 and improving the tuning of the car on the weekends.

“I think it is very fair to say that some of our tools are weak, especially for the pilot: This is not related to this time because it needs a lot of workAnd this is a basic research tool. It is a limit of absence, but clearly we have to work on it. And then describe a plan to get you where you are. But this is probably the two -year project, really. “

Simulator is two paths

“This is the disadvantage. How hard it is to say. Pilot simulators in F1SAnd use two ways. On the one hand, as a tool of research when you see how you are going to create a car next yearYou are going to put all the tools well how to model it together. And another, how to develop the car in the carUsually, especially on some racing weekends. So we will be a little blind for a while. We should try to use the experience and the best judgment. It tells the time how successful it is. ”

Two points are key. First, it is clear: the creation of the car and the creation of new pieces. And focusing on the second topic: it can be seen in its importance in teams like Red Bull, which starts in many cases on Fridays, but after the harsh work of their simulator pilots in the factory the same night, they will be able to find the right arrangement that allows them to maximize their magic.

The previous major team did not talk about the deadline to find out when to tune the simulator to the maximum Mike crack, defined as “Star Wars Simulator” For his latest technology. But you need to adjust it to sure what is happening in the track, so that when Aston Martin takes a portion of the asphalt, it works as they are eroded so that the team has to find the perfect adjustments, the simulator is given quickly and without errors.

In that sense, Adrian NewVe speech has the goal of reducing expectations. You know: In F1, everything is said for a reason. And many times, there is less ‘correlation’ with reality. So you have to wait to see the 2026 car on the track and the opponents of its performance with the opponents to know whether the simulator is a real problem.

At the moment, Adrian covered his back and He talked about the “two -year project”, when asked about the time to take that correlation with the simulator. “It is a limit, but you have to work at this time. It is probably two -year project.”

In fact, in the 2009 regulations change, the Red Bull Champion is not a champion and it has begun to dominate for four years since 2010. In 2022, Ferrari began to dominate the first races and then torn from the middle of the Red Bull Championship, conquering a maximum of 3 consecutive titles in the current era of the F1, and the first to be added in 2021, Adrian Neway’s writing, from last year’s dominator.

Which problem is this? In an interview published on the Aston Martin Team website, New Yee has already given evidence of it, highlighting that physical models are more important than simulator hardware when obtaining the perfect correlation. “You may have the best movement system in the world, but if you do not interact with the designs and the aerodynamic model, the mutual relationship with the Numatic model is helped,” he argued.

“This is the best F1 factory and the best wind tunnel”

Adriyan highlighted the quality of new facilities and team professionals and the enormous growth of lived in a very short time. To work together and lose all of those machines without errors Cowell has already said in an exclusive interview given to Mundo Deportivo.

“The factory is probably the best in the F1, and the best wind tunnel in the Wind Tunnel F1. Today, wind tunnels are very complex tools, so they are still in the process of development. We are still working, because we are still working.

“There are very, very good people in person. We should try to work together, perhaps somewhat better organized way. And I think this is clearly the result, The sources of the team in Jordan, which forced India became a racing point, and it was always a small team, but a little more than performance, now, in a very short period of time, the truth, the truth, is less yielding this year. “He said.

“And I think it is mostly to settle down and learn to get the best from the people.”Added the engineer.

In the first areas, Adrian NewVe said, to create a car without a well -interested simulator, making good assessments to replace that error.

Thus the moment in the 2026 project was explained. It focuses on “car foundations”: “This time I started at the beginning of March, and the stress was equally large. ”

“My main goal at this time is to work with everyone I call the founders of the car, They are Parts of a car that cannot be changed in a season, arrangement of front and rear suspension, the length of the fuel tank, Where the main people cannot be taken in the wheelbase, that kind of thing. We are working hard on it. “

“Of course, we don’t have enough time, and we don’t have enough as I told you … In our simulation tools, these are a little weak, so we have to give the best judgments about it, and if we can do well, the body and the ileerons, etc., you can try to develop throughout the year. “He explained.

Working next to Alonso

“As soon as you know, as you know, as you know, as you know, because you know, so, yes, I have conversations with Fernando in the factory, but only when you started developing that relationship, I only take a little time about this season, but he is about a person.
