Fernando Alonso’s F1 future is in the spotlight as Aston Martin arrives in Hungary with the first phase of a massive upgrade package that could define the rest of its season. Edd Straw is joined by Josh Suttill and special guest Alex Kalinauckas (of The Athletic), to break down whether Aston Martin can deliver the step forward Alonso needs - and whether it could shape his decision to stay in Formula 1.
The guys also dig into the scale of Aston Martin’s problems, the pressure on Adrian Newey and the wider technical team, and why this weekend has become such a crucial test of the team’s direction. Plus, they look ahead to the wider Hungarian Grand Prix storylines, including whether George Russell should realistically be expected to turn the tables on Mercedes team-mate Kimi Antonelli given his issues in Belgium, and whether Ferrari will be able to capitalise on Lewis Hamilton’s incredible Hungaroring record to upset the Silver Arrows.
