Vettlu faces disqualification

formula 1

Sebastian Vettel could be left without a second place at the Hungarian GP, as the FIA failed to take the required fuel sample from his car. The German drove the Aston Martin to the finish line only behind Esteban Ocon, but after the end of the race, he parked the AMR21 race by the track after he obviously ran out of fuel. The FIA managed to extract only 0.3 liters of fuel from the car, while the rules require 1.0 liters. A racer is usually disqualified from the final classification of a race for such an offense.

formula 1

Aston Martin unveiled this year's AMR21 a few moments ago. The team changed its name from Racing Point at the end of last season, and the first Aston Martin race car is dressed in the famous racing British green.

Aston Martin has strengthened with four-time world champion Sebastian Vettl, who will be teammate Lanc Stroll, who took the podium twice last year and won the first best starting position of his career in qualifying for the Turkish GP.

Aston Martin: What will the presentation bring?

formula 1

The Aston Martin team will present themselves to the world this afternoon, when we will see their AMR21 race car for the first time, with which Lance Stroll and Sebastian Vettel will try to win. The team remains owned by Lawrence Stroll, but has changed its name, but we are all wondering if their car this year, which we expect in “British racing” green, will be another “copy” of last year’s Mercedes car. Much of the attention in the presentation will surely be reaped by Sebastian Vettel, who left Ferrari and became a new teammate of Lanc Stroll. The four-time world champion has suffered quite a few blows in the team from Maranello, but with the "green Mercedes" the German could still return to winning ways this year, and his experience could help the team go one step further.
