Aston Martin Aramco Cognizant F1 Team unveiled the AMR23 ahead of the 2023 season at a striking event at the new Silverstone Headquarters on Monday night. In front of an enthusiastic crowd, the iconic British racing team marked one hundred and ten iconic years of the brand with a spectacular reveal.
Executive Chairman Lawrence Stroll was present, alongside Team Principal Mike Krack, who is embarking on his second year as the team’s showrunner after being appointed to the role in January last year.
Despite emerging as a serious contender in the second half of the 2022 season, Aston Martin is aiming to start the upcoming season all guns blazing and improve on its finish from the end of last year’s season in which they narrowly missed out on sixth place in the Constructors Championships to Alfa Romeo f1 Team Stake.
Team Principal Krack commented on the ambitions the team holds going into the next season. He made it clear that the team’s aim is to start strong and continue the momentum the team found at the tail end of last year’s season.
“The second half of 2022 showed real signs of progress as we worked hard on car development. For this year, our aim must be to build a car that can fully deliver on its performance potential from the first moment it hits the track.
“Making a strong start to the year, and then maintaining that momentum, is necessary if we are to make further advances towards the front of the grid. And, as an organisation, we are working hard to achieve that, and to further strengthen all areas of the team.
“We already know the proven strengths of our design, engineering and build departments – the arrival of Fernando, partnering Lance, further underlines the sheer depth and range of our driver squad. It feels like every element of this organisation is really working well together.
“Finally, we would like to thank all of our fans for their unwavering support, and we look forward to seeing you across the world this season.”
