“I would say that the AMR24 is a great evolution of last year’s car and looks quite different, with many new parts that provide us with a solid development platform. The chassis design is new, as is the nose, the front wing “, the front suspension and the rear suspension. We want to compete in the development race this season and this car is designed for that,” he said.

I am eager to get in the cockpit and start my second season in green,” said the Asturian driver.
Lance Stroll recalled for his part that it is “a young team”, but one that is growing quickly.
