TECH ANALYSIS: Aston Martin introduce a raft of changes with their AMR25

Having shown off their 2025 livery during F1’s inaugural presentation show in London, Aston Martin have now revealed their new challenger for the 2025 F1 season an unveiling across the team’s digital channels.

The new car for 2025 showcases branding from several of the team’s new and existing partners, with 32 in total. Since the start of the year, the British team has announced five new partnerships, alongside two contract renewals and one partnership uplift, with Saudi mining company Ma’aden being elevated to become the team’s first Principal Partner.

The front wing of the AMR25 is a significant evolution of the front wing the team introduced towards the end of last year. The changes are focused on improving low-speed downforce, the balance of the car and giving the drivers more stability through all the phases of cornering.

The comparison provided by Formula Aerodynamics shows that the new front wing design features a smaller third element compared to what the team used last year.

The sidepods of the AMR25 have been reprofiled and are the most striking change visually compared to its predecessor. Deeply undercut, they feature a swooping channel along the length of the upper surface to better guide airflow. The images indicate that the British outfit dropped the sculpted sidepod shape and changed it to a very slim design with some big waterslides.

A tightly packaged radiator layout has been reconfigured to accommodate the new sidepod design. The new sidepod inlets show similarities with Ferrari’s SF-25-style, also featuring a ‘sidepod wing’. The team opted for a new side-impact-structure while it also made changes to the floor edge of the AMR25.

Moreover, the engine cover features a jagged, razor-sharp spine running from the airbox towards the rear wing to direct airflow to the rear of the car. The team has made significant changes to the rear bodywork cooling canons which is similar to what Red Bull chased with their RB20.

The AMR25 features a push-rod suspension layout at both the front and rear; the wheel assembly is joined to the chassis by a diagonal structure with a higher point on the car’s body.

The team has made changes to the brake ducts at both the front and rear of the car in order to improve brake cooling and airflow management. Brake ducts funnel air into and out of the brake assembly; on the AMR25, this consists of Brembo brake calipers and Carbon Industrie carbon fibre discs and pads.
