How Aston Martin have gone from mid-pack to podium so quickly

How Aston Martin have gone from mid-pack to podium so quickly

F1 is back - and so is The Race F1 Tech Show! We're kicking off a brand-new season of the podcast with an in-depth discussion about one of the biggest talking points from the opening race in Bahrain: Aston Martin's (somewhat surprising) podium-scoring pace.

Just how did the team go from midfield runner to podium contender in such a short period of time, especially when the rules have remained so stable? Can they keep up this form all season? And is it unfair to suggest their car design takes all its cues from Red Bull? Joining host Edd Straw to answer those questions and more is former Jordan, Stewart and Jaguar F1 technical director Gary Anderson.

Gary also shares his thoughts on the first race of the year, and in particular why the field spread was much closer than last year. He also answers a terrific listener question on the topic of Red Bull, specifically on the rake angle the team runs and pitch control suspension designs.

If you'd like to have your tech question answered on the show, send an email or voicenote to podcasts@the-race.com
