Aston Martin is the big revelation of this start to the 2023 season. In the final stages, the Silverstone team was present on the podium with Fernando Alonso. Lance Stroll, on the other hand, struggled in Bahrain due to recovering from his wrists after a cycling accident, and in Saudi Arabia he had to retire due to reliability issues.
Thus, the Canadian will face the Australian GP without too many expectations: “It’s another circuit very different from the two that we have known so far this season, which means that there is no expectations; we’re going to take it day by day,” Stroll said in a press release.
“It was disappointing to end the Saudi Grand Prix with a DNF so I’m looking forward to getting back on track in Australia,” added Lance. The pilot was in fourth position when he had to shut down the AMR23 due to low energy recovery.
For this weekend, let’s remember that the activities in Melbourne are scheduled between Brazilian night and dawn. TL1 is at 10:30 p.m. and TL2 at 2:00 a.m. from Thursday to Friday. The last practices take place at 22:30 on Friday and the classification at 02:00. The race will take place at 02:00 in the morning from Saturday to Sunday.
