F1 pundit Alex Brundle believes 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Aston Martin have “checked out” from the 2025 season foll﷽owing a difficult start.

Aston Martin have scored just 10 points in the opening fiveꩵ races of the year, making 🧸it their worst start to a campaign since 2022.

While they sit seventh in the F1 constructors’ championship, ahead of Racing Bulls, Alpine and Sauber, it’s not a true ♛reflection of their on-track performance.

Racing Bulls have t♕hꦍrown away numerous points finishes through strategy blunders.

Similarly, Alpine have contended for the top 10 on a number of occasions, but ha🐎ve struggled to maximise their performance.

Star driver 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fernando Alonso has yet to score a point in 2025, with all of Aston Martin's points so far coming from 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lance Stroll.

Stroll finishedꦏ sixth in a chaotic season-opening Australian Grand Prix and then added to his points total in Chin💧a after the two Ferraris were disqualified.

Aston Martin have “massive job” for 2026

2026 will be a big year for Aston Martin as they welcome Hondﷺa as their works engine supplier.

Adri📖an Newey has started work as their managing technical partner 🐼but isn’t expected to have a major impact until next year.

Enrico Cardile will also join from Ferrari, bolsterin🤡g Aston Martin’s design team.

Brundle feels tꦫhe 𓂃significant changes for next year mean Aston Martin have already shifted their focus.

“I get the sense that they’ve checked out from the season already. You look at it and🦹 you’ve got Adrian🍸 Newey standing in Silverstone, penning a 2026 car,” Brundle said via.

“One of the teams that will have an engine change into next year as w♑ell, so they move to ജa Honda engine. It’s a massive job.

“Making a new gearbox, and I don’t know. You just look at where they are in the championship, they’ve been some points for Lance. I don’t know, maybe that’s unfair to say and maybe they’ll bring some upgrades and come back to it, but it’s not look♒ing great.”
