While Aston Martin continues to lay the foundations for its future in Formula 1, notably with the arrival of Honda engines in 2026, the British team strikes a new blow by recruiting Gary Gannon, former racing engineer at Haas, as the reveals Motorsport.com. A well-known figure in the paddock, Gannon worked for ten years for the American team, collaborating with renowned drivers such as Romain Grosjean, Mick Schumacher and more recently Nico Hülkenberg. This experienced technician, who also has a wealth of experience in F1 with Virgin/Marussia and in American motorsport with Honda, begins a new adventure within the Silverstone team at the dawn of the 2025 season.

If Aston Martin has confirmed the arrival of Gannon, the precise role he will occupy remains to be determined, as does the identity of the driver he will accompany between Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll. This strategic recruitment is part of a period of transition for the team, marked by changes at its leadership with the arrival of Andy Cowell, former boss of Mercedes engines, as CEO. With Gannon in its ranks, Aston Martin displays its ambition to consolidate its technical staff with a view to maintaining its progress and aiming for the summits in the era of Honda engines.
