Aston Martin Racing’s Chief Technical Officer Andrew Green said it was a scary process that required several trips back to the drawing board and still isn’t a finished product.

“I think what we are seeing is the first iteration of the AMR22,” added Green. “We are on a steep learning curve, everyone’s on a steep learning curve, nobody’s got the answers yet. I think we are going to see this car develop highly over the coming season… So, it is an exciting time to be in Formula 1, but it’s also quite nerve-wracking.”
