Aston Martin 2022 AMR22 Race Used DRS Flap - Framed

Auction

Add this striking piece of Formula 1® history to your collection, taken from Aston Martin Aramco Cognizant F1® Team. This DRS flap once played a crucial role in the setup of the AMR22 race car that tackled the circuits during the 2022 F1® season. 

Aston Martin rejoined the grid in 2021 after 61 years away from the sport, with a driver line-up of four-time World Champion, Sebastian Vettel, and Canadian ace, Lance Stroll, who both continued together in 2022. These two years were paramount for the rebranded team as they re-navigated the sport. 

The role of the DRS flap is an important one, designed to reduce drag and increase straight-line speed. When activated in designated DRS zones, the flap opens to decrease downforce, allowing the car to accelerate faster and improve overtaking opportunities. However, it automatically closes when the driver lifts off the throttle or applies the brakes, restoring downforce for better cornering stability. When racing, drivers need to be within one second of the car in front, whilst in the DRS Zone (or detection zone) for the DRS to be activated. 

Now, this authentic piece of Aston Martin bodywork, used on one of the AMR22 race cars, is presented for a collector to own. A brand steeped in history; this is an unmissable piece of memorabilia.
