"AutoRacer" journalist Culiano Dukessa described an unusual method used by "Aston Martin" F1 pilots to reduce vibrations from the new "Honda" engine.
İdman.Biz reports that there were earlier reports that "Aston Martin" might miss several "Formula 1" Grands Prix in the 2026 season.
"The problems facing "Aston Martin" are obvious and tragicomic. According to what I heard, during testing, "Aston Martin" pilots chew three or four pieces of chewing gum at the same time and use it as a mouthguard to eliminate vibrations from the "Honda" engine passing through the chassis," Dukessa wrote on his social media page.
