Behind the scenes of Dan Fallows' departure from Aston Martin

In addition to recent poor performances, this November was marked by internal movement at Aston MartinBetween the Brazilian and Las Vegas Grand Prix, Lawrence's team Stroll made some strong decisions, thinking about his future.

The main one concerned its technical department with the confirmation of the departure of its director Dan Fallows, at the head for two years. However, the reasons for this remain unknown while Aston Martin had only wanted to thank the Englishman for all his contribution.

It was only in Qatar this week that the “file” was put back on the table as Mike Krack had to meet media obligations on the sidelines of the Grand Prix. Questioned on Dan Fallows, the team principal suggested that a change in the organisational chart had become inevitable as the team is experiencing a very difficult end to the season with declining performances.

« In the end, all that matters is the result and the performance., responded Mike Krack. If the performance is not there, there have to be changes. That's normal in our environment. It's no different in any other professional sport. If the performance is not there, the team decides to make changes, and that's what happened. » A departure perhaps also caused by the recent arrivals of Adrian Newey and Enrico Cardile.

With two rounds to go, Aston Martin is in 5th place in the Constructors' standings with 86 points. Its lead of 36 points over Haas should allow him to keep it, while Fernando Alonso has not scored any points in the last 4 races, Lance Stroll in the 9. Proof that the Greens are very far from their expected level. Bring on the holidays.
