Watch Fernando Alonso drive an Aston Martin Valiant up Goodwood hill
Published on
The Aston Martin Valiant made its global debut last month. The general public can catch it in action at the ongoing Goodwood Festival of Speed. Today, Aston Martin Aramco Formula 1 driver Fernando Alonso drove the Valiant up the hill climb course.
The Aston Martin Valiant is a lightweight, track-focused version of the Valour. It has been developed by the company’s bespoke division, Q by Aston Martin. Production is limited to 38 units, and they’re sold out.
The Valiant features a few exterior modifications aimed at improving downforce. It also weighs slightly less than the Valour, while retaining the same twin-turbo 5.2-liter V12 engine. It is tuned to 735 hp and 555 lb-ft of torque and is paired with a 6-speed manual transmission.
