The Aston Martin Vantage S officially assumes the role of Formula One's safety vehicle.
Aston Martin's Vantage S Takes the Helm as Formula 1 Safety Car
Aston Martin is set to make a significant mark in the world of Formula 1, as the British luxury car manufacturer unveils the Aston Martin Vantage S as the official safety car for the upcoming races.
The Vantage S, a powerful powerhouse with a twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 engine, boasts an impressive 680 horsepower and 590 lb-ft of torque. This makes it the most powerful safety car Aston Martin has ever produced.
Alex Long, Global Marketing Director at Aston Martin, expressed his enthusiasm about the Vantage S, stating that it represents the peak of performance for the model that is the beating heart of the Aston Martin brand.
Bernd Maylaender, the driver responsible for navigating the Vantage S ahead of the F1 field, expressed his excitement about the car's performance capabilities for responding quickly and safely during on-track deployment.
The Vantage S will make its debut as the official safety car at the Zandvoort Circuit in the Netherlands this weekend. Maylaender will be behind the wheel, leading the field as the Formula 1 safety car.
The FIA-specification light bar on the Vantage S has been aerodynamically optimized to ensure maximum visibility during races. Aston Martin has also given the car bespoke upgrades for its role as the Formula 1 safety car, including a large downforce-generating rear spoiler.
The Vantage S will be finished in Podium Green, the same colour used on Aston Martin's Formula 1 racing cars and the DBX707 medical car. This choice of colour is a testament to the car's racing pedigree and its place in the world of Formula 1.
The Aston Martin Vantage S will not only make its debut this weekend but will also serve as the Official FIA Safety Car of Formula 1 for the upcoming season. However, there is no information available about who will drive the Vantage S as the FIA safety car at the 2025 Dutch Grand Prix.
This new partnership between Aston Martin and Formula 1 is set to bring a thrilling combination of luxury, power, and performance to the world of motorsport. With the Vantage S at the helm, spectators can expect an exciting and dynamic racing season ahead.
