Aston Martin complete fire-up of all-new AMR22

Aston Martin are pinning big hopes on the AMR22, following a 2021 debut season in which, in the words of driver Sebastian Vettel – who again partners Lance Stroll this season – they were “hoping for more”, after finishing a distant P7 in the standings.
