Aston Martin Performance Director Tom McCullough has praised Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll for their “very professional” attitude as the team continue to work on improvements – both in the short and long-term – following mixed fortunes so far in the 2024 season.
After a memorably strong start to the campaign in 2023, the squad have not quite been able to recapture that form this time around, with their best result so far being a P5 for Alonso in Saudi Arabia.
