Fastest aston martin

Listen to this article Following the finalisation of the updated engine regulations for 2026, increasing the amount of electric power and mandating the use of efuels, F1 has been subject to fresh manufacturer interest. Audi announced last month it would enter F1 as an engine manufacturer from 2026 , while sister Volkswagen Group brand Porsche remains keen on an entry despite its planned partnership with Red Bull being scrapped after a breakdown in talks. Honda is also thought to be considering a return in 2026 after ending its works involvement last year while retaining technical ties to Red Bull. With Mercedes already on the grid, Audi incoming, Porsche interested and the Volkswagen brand no longer completing motorsport activities, it leaves BMW as the only remaining major German manufacturer.

Yuki Tsunoda says he and AlphaTauri have reassessed their targets for the season after a difficult 2022 campaign. Having ended his rookie season by helping AlphaTauri reach sixth in the 2021 Constructors’ Championship, Tsunoda would have had every expectation that he might kick on in 2022.

Listen to this article Less than a fortnight after Honda’s least competitive showing of the year at Magny-Cours, Lecuona showed signs of a return to form for the Japanese manufacturer by topping the times across the opening two practice sessions of the weekend. Most of the day’s fastest times were set in the morning session, with Lecuona himself setting his chart-setting top time towards the end of FP1. The Spaniard rider lapped his home track in 1m41.396s, ending the day more than half a second clear of Rinaldi’s Ducati and the Yamaha of reigning champion Toprak Razgatlioglu. Points leader Alvaro Bautista was quickest in the afternoon session, but his time was only good enough for fourth in the overall timesheets - six tenths down on Lecuona’s FP1 benchmark. Kawasaki star Jonathan Rea made a minor improvement between the two sessions to take fifth, with Andrea Locatelli finishing right behind him on the second of the two works Yamahas. Xavi Vierge rounded off a strong … [Read more...] about Barcelona WSBK: Lecuona tops Friday practice for Honda
