‘There will be more to come’ from Aston Martin, says Team Principal Mike Krack. The Aston boss joins Tom Clarkson, Natalie Pinkham and Damon Hill to preview the 2023 Australian Grand Prix. He explains what Fernando Alonso has brought to the team, how Lance Stroll has produced ‘incredible’ drives despite a pre-season injury, and gives his forecast for the team’s ability to race Red Bull in Melbourne and for the rest of the season. With Max Verstappen just one point ahead of Sergio Perez, Tom and Damon discuss the rivalry at Red Bull and why teammate championship battles can produce amazing F1 action. CEO of the Australian Grand Prix, Andrew Westacott, looks forward to a special weekend of racing which could, he says, be spiced up with a Sunday rain shower. Plus, the team assess Ferrari, McLaren and Mercedes, ask if Valtteri Bottas can be considered an honorary Australian yet, and there are new leaders in our F1 Fantasy League.
