Mike Krack admits to reality of Aston Martin's deficit in Barcelona

It is a brutal awakening for Aston Martin at the Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix. Mike Krack, the team’s chief trackside officer, has laid out the cold, hard numbers from practice, confirming the squad is sitting between 3.7 and 4 seconds off the pace.

That is an enormous gap to bridge, even for a team that expected a difficult weekend. Krack was clear about the situation, stating, “We knew it was going to be difficult.”
