New Aston Martin boss Andy Cowell’s vow for F1 success:

— Andy Cowell, recently appointed as Aston Martin team principal alongside his CEO role, has pledged to make the team “robotic” in its F1 development to compete for the title.

— Speaking about his vision, Cowell emphasized precision and efficiency in experiments, aiming for consistent improvement:

“I guess 2026 is an opportunity for everybody, but we are working hard to make the car quicker for next year [as well], and with our new facilities for 2026, 2027, 2028, we are growing with our facilities.”

“I don’t like the phrase of rolling a dice. I’m more from the school of: ‘you work hard and make your own luck.’ It is what somebody said about playing golf, the more I do, the luckier I get, so it is every single project I want us to get better at, it is not just targeting one point.”

— Cowell detailed the team’s approach to creativity and experimentation:

“I want to be amazingly creative on everything that we are working on and then really robotic with the way we do experiments, and believe the result from the experiment.

“We will try and lose our emotional attachment to the idea when we look at the results and learn and get back around as fast as we can.”

— Cowell, a former head of Mercedes High-Performance Powertrains, now leads Aston Martin as the team leverages its new state-of-the-art factory and significant technical signings, including Adrian Newey and Enrico Cardile.
