Aston Martin's new AMR26 car, designed by Adrian Newey, finally hit the track on the fourth day of the 2026 Formula 1 pre-season shakedown at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya. Lance Stroll completed a handful of slow laps before a precautionary stop triggered a red flag. The radical design has already drawn attention despite the team's delayed arrival.
The Formula 1 Commission met in Bahrain on Wednesday during the final pre-season test, discussing feedback on the 2026 cars and safety concerns over race starts. The FIA has decided against immediate modifications to the start procedure, citing immature feedback. Discussions also covered expanding sprint races to 12 events.
