## Resource

David Coulthard says Aston Martin is at rock bottom this season, sitting tenth with just three points — all from Fernando Alonso — but he sees signs of a turnaround. After a rough first half plagued by car and engine woes, the team rolled out upgrades in Hungary and the Netherlands, signaling serious effort to fix things. Drawing parallels to McLaren’s past resurgence, Coulthard believes Aston Martin is at a critical inflection point where things can only go up. While drivers still complain about downshifts and engine feel, he’s confident the team is responding quickly — improvements could be seen as soon as this weekend. Despite a bleak start, Coulthard is optimistic this is the beginning of their comeback. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
