Aston Martin team boss Mike Krack has warned that catching up with Red Bull this season will not be an easy task. While upgrading the car is only “relative” to what their rivals do, the team has made a flying start to their season, eking out a nine-point advantage over Mercedes and 39 up on Ferrari.
After last year’s struggles, the Silverstone team introduced a B-spec car and built on the Red Bull-esque design to create a top-three car in this year’s ARM23. Three podiums with a hat-trick of P3s for Fernando Alonso have established Aston Martin as Red Bull’s closest rival, not only on the track but in the standings.
