Fernando Alonso: The new features work as they should.

      In Hungary, the Aston Martin team brought an updated car. Following the Friday practice sessions, Fernando Alonso, who showed the 19th time in the second session and was nearly three seconds behind the leader, stated that the car's behavior met expectations.

      Lance Stroll ended his work early in the first practice due to a failure of the rear left suspension and missed the second session as the team couldn't assemble the car in time. Instead of the Canadian, the day's results were summarized by team representative Pedro de la Rosa.

      Fernando Alonso (19th): "Today the feeling from the car is better, and it behaved roughly as we expected after the updates were installed. This confirms that our calculations were correct, and the new parts are working as they should. That's a positive point.

      This is just the first step. We have new updates coming in the upcoming races. Right now, we continue to work on the new parts, and I think that with the car's setup, we will be able to unlock their potential by tomorrow."

      Pedro de la Rosa: "The first day with the updates was promising. Despite losing valuable time on track due to the suspension issue on Lance's car, the initial results are encouraging.

      The data collected generally meets our expectations, which means we have a good foundation for further work. This is only the first step, but the start has been positive. Now we have a decent base to build on for the remaining days of the weekend."
