Fernando Alonso said it is not the job of “one man” to turn Aston Martin’s Formula 1 fortunes around, amid continued speculation linking his team to Adrian Newey.

Yeah when each "upgrade" is making the car worse over a stretch of a year and a half your have some systemic issues. At least the new wind tunnel should be online around this time, so let's all pray that that will be the difference maker.

But Daddy Stroll will still pay him a lot of money to make Lance look better.

Will he make a great car for AM, yes. Will lance use this and win a world title (or even a race?) No. he can make the best car he has ever made ever, but lance is a shit driver, he will probably crash more because of the power he does not know how to use. Alonso? Yes he would win probably but by the time the car is ready he will be retired, either by papa stroll or because he wants to.

Worrying because Alonso has supposedly been chasing Newey/Newey influenced cars for quite some time. Apparently even wanted to get him to Ferrari before his own patience ran out.

I wonder if Nando is rebelling against Daddy Stroll… which will be an interesting thing to witness.
