It's May 1st. I'm Kory with the story. This is F1 News today, driven by AI and Bill for fans.

Honda and Aston Martin's new engine partnership hit some serious bumps right out the gate this formula one season.

But they're gearing up with fresh. Fixus for this weekend's Miami Grand Prix.

The team's AMR 26 package has been dogged by vibrations and breakdowns, leaving them with just one race finished so far.

Fernando Alonzo scraping.

18th in Japan. The duo linked up aiming to make Silverstone powerhouses into title contenders starting in 2026, but the first three rounds in Australia.

China and Japan exposed big reliability woes.

Production delays meant the car came together late and severe shakes sideline both Alonzo and Landstrow early on.

Behind the scenes, the five-week break thanks to cancelled Bahrain and Saudi races gave them time to grind.

Honda's trackside boss shared they've collaborated across Japan and the UK, running static tests on one car to tackle those vibrations head on.

Drivers are staying real, but hopeful.

Alonzo says, Honda's hustling hard on solutions, expecting a smoother ride in Miami with reliability gains, though raw speed won't spike yet.

Stroll agrees they're pinpointing issues, but upgrades take time to build and bolt on.

As the season rolls on, expect Aston Martin and Honda to keep stacking improvements, turning early headaches into momentum for the long haul.
