Any upgrades for balance races. Our position is fixed in WCC, however if no upgrades then it would be painful.

Haters gonna be mad when Alonso extends. Gonna be glorious!

I don’t understand why people don’t realize how epic this moment is. :wtf: If Fred takes a championship as a 40+ year, old timer…it begs GOAT. Seriously. What are the odds that this pairing, Newey and Fred, could have ever happened? Think of the events that had to take place to make this possible. :wtf: Boggles the mind. It’s like the universe is working to deliver two legends, a legendary moment in racing history. I’m still dumbfounded at it all. Epic, epic moment. =D> =D> =D>

I think it really weird that we're talking about 2027. So many thing have to fall into place for Max to even want to come to Aston. Also didn't Newey sign a 4 year deal? 2027 is the 3ird year in that contract. Meaning 1 more year left at that point?

Lawrence Stroll said in the Newey press conference that the deal with Honda was for 5 years starting in 2026, so I presume Newey has signed a 5 year contract?

It seems that recently the FIA and the teams have agreed to increase the load of the 2026 cars and to reduce restrictions on some areas of the car. So I imagine this is some good news for Newey :)

Alonso/Newey combo is going to be epic. I still pinch myself but it’s finally happening. GG Alonsista’ gang, we did it!

Doesn't that look like Kimi in the back looking in on someone taking a picture of Newey and Alonso ? :)

I know it's not him but though it was funny. Like he wants in on at Aston :)
It’s funny but I wouldn’t be surprised if Kimi ended up rooting for a driver from his generation to win a championship over the new breed.

technically, there are probably more like 4.937 quadrillion possible futures, and thats only considering the dimension that we inhabit. you see it could be a lot worse :lol:

Even if the current regulations were continued for another 5 years, I would at best put it at 50% chance for AMR to win multiple races consistently let alone title. Why? Because we just havent seen them do it. Let alone the fact that the new regs are mainly about the PU,. Did people forget that Newey was at RB from 2014-2020 and RB didnt come close to winning a title.
