Former F1 driver Johnny Herbert thinks the pressure is only mounting on Aston Martin after 🌳they “underachieved” last year.

After showing great promise 𒐪at the start of 2023 with a raft of podium finishe♚s, Aston Martin’s form has nose-dived.

In both of the🗹 last two seasons, Aston Martin have struggled with in-season development, with th✤eir upgrades often seeing very little improvement.

Even though they finished P5 in the F1 constructors’ championship again, they were out-paced by Haas and Alpine during the la💯tter part of the year.

With 2026 approaching and the new regulations, Aston Martin 🔜might immediately switch its focus to next year, meaning the upcoming 12 months could be another struggle.

Speaking to , Herbert explained that Aston Martin “have the biggest pressure on their shoulders” due to the ♛expectations set by Lawrence Stroll’s revolution.

“Aston Martin have underꦕachieved because they have not been able to quite get it together when they started very strong a couple of years ago and then it all sort of disappeared,” Herbert s♛aid.

“Now a lot of things have changed but that’s going to take a little bit of time before we see that come together. Aston Martin are the ones who probably have the bigges♓t pressure on their shoulders because there’s so much expectation with what Lawrence Stroll has done for the 💝team and now they’ve got to be able to deliver.

“I think Aston Martin are the ones that are probably going to be the most disappointing in 2025. But there is all that posit🅺ive stuff wi🌌th Adrian Newey, the new wind tunnel and all the infrastructure that’s been put into place for it to happen.”

The Canadian continues to lag 🐼way behind Alonso in performance terms, leading Herbert to urge Stro🐷ll to up his gain, which would benefit the team.

“Fernando Alonso has been a little bit frustrated at times, which is what you always expect from hi꧃m,꧒” he added.

“And Lance Stroll has got to raise his game, because I think both of them have got to be able to feed off each other to be able to then🎶 push themselves and help the team move forward.”
