Aston Martin F1 celebrates 100th race milestone as Fernando Alonso finishes seventh in Canada, reviving hopes for Formula 1 2025.
Fernando Alonso took nine races to score his first points in 2025, but the Aston Martin F1 driver has now secured back-to-back top-10 finishes with a strong seventh place.
“We made a big step forward in Montreal, as we celebrate our 100th race as a team under the Aston Martin F1 name,” said Andy Cowell, the team principal, who also acknowledged Lance Stroll’s return despite his 17th-place finish.
“Fernando finished seventh, his best result of the season, earning well-deserved points for the team. We stuck to our Plan A strategy and executed it well.”
“It was good to have Lance back in the car this weekend. It was a tough day for him after an unlucky qualifying session. We need to learn from this weekend to improve his feeling with the car.”
With successful upgrades, Aston Martin can hope to string together a few strong performances.
“We are determined to keep addressing all areas ahead of the race in Austria in two weeks.”
