The Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team is proud to debut its new challenger for the 2024 season – the AMR24. On a significant day for Aston Martin, the new Vantage road car and Aston Martin Vantage GT3 join the AMR24, marking a trilogy of reveals.
In its iconic racing green livery, complete with Aramco title partner branding, the AMR24 represents a solid and exciting evolution from its predecessor, which catapulted the team to eight podiums and 280 points in 2023. The AMR24 evolves the same design philosophy, but there is a minor carryover, with most parts being new for 2024. The continuous refinement of the AMR24 has resulted in a lighter, more aerodynamically efficient race car designed to operate across a broader range of circuits.
“We are proud to debut the AMR24,” said Team Principal Mike Krack. “It is the result of a huge effort by the whole team at our new AMR Technology Campus, and it will allow the team to take another step forward in 2024.

Almost every area of the car has been refined and improved, building on our strengths and taking on board the lessons of the previous campaign. 2023 was our best season to date, and our goal this season is to score regular points, podiums, and fight for our first win in green.”
Dan Fallows, Technical Director, explains how the team approached the AMR24: “Even with the stable regulations, there are endless possibilities for refinement. I would call the AMR24 a substantial evolution of last year’s car, and it does look quite different, with many new parts to give us a robust platform for development. The chassis design is new, as well as the nose, front wing, front suspension and rear suspension. We want to compete in the development race this season, and this car is designed to do just that.
“Another area of focus has been to broaden the car’s operating window. We have focused on more versatility for a wider range of specific circuit characteristics. We want a race car that is more of an all-rounder. We believe the…
