Aston is back! A quick look at the test BoP settings¹.

Power:Weight (low speed):

Let’s see how the Power at low speed and high speed compare.

There is a very different approach to Acrua at Sebring test compared to Daytona 24. At Daytona it had a high low speed power and was compensated Down by 3.5% in the high speed stuff.

For the test IMSA have asked them to do the opposite. They have gained 20kW, but lose 3.4% over 240kph.

Are they testing this, or do they anticipate they need a change for this different circuit.

For completeness here are the weights. The Aston is hidden under the Porsche.
My guess is that IMSA are treating this new car conservatively.
