Teams reorganise around major technical programmes

Alpine has hired Mike Elliott as chief technical officer to strengthen coordination around David Sanchez, while Aston Martin's latest package delivered a claimed 'double step' in downforce and drivability. New AMR27 reporting describes an extensively new 2027 car, retaining the overall concept while allowing major changes to the floor, energy deployment and rear wing. McLaren is addressing slow-corner performance with a new underbody, whereas Williams' overweight chassis continues to undermine its recovery.
