Aston Martin Formula 1 team have announced a new multi-year partnership ahead of the 2025 season.
A disappointing 2024 for Lawrence Stroll's outfit meant that they could only manage a P5 finish in the constructors' standings, 374 points behind nearest rival Mercedes.
With an exciting signing announced for Aston Martin for next season, the team and their driver duo of Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll will no doubt be hoping a change will help deliver a more fruitful season on track.
F1 design legend Adrian Newey is set to join the team following his shock exit from Red Bull last year, with the aim of elevating Aston Martin into championship contention at the centre of his move.
While the driver duo is set to remain unchanged for 2025, the team have now announced another landmark partnership.
