- GPblog.com
Fernando Alonso experienced his first day at Aston Martin this week. The British formation hopes to make great strides with the two-time world champion to fulfil its big ambitions. On social media, it gives fans an insight into how the day went.
The footage shows Alonso arriving at his team and meeting the factory staff. Moreover, he takes a seat in Aston Martin's new car, where he gets a taste of the atmosphere with his helmet on.
Alonso still has plenty of time to prepare for the new season. After all, the first race weekend is not scheduled until early March, when the drivers travel to Bahrain to open the season.
First day in green.

Launch of the AMR23
Aston Martin fans will have to wait a little longer for the launch of the new car. This is because the British formation has decided not to bring out the AMR23 until Monday 13 February. This makes it one of the last teams on the grid to do so.
