Aston Martin achieved its best result of the season at Zandvoort, where Fernando Alonso finished ninth in the Dutch Grand Prix.
Alonso had qualified 18th but moved forward in the race with an opportunistic one-stop strategy to secure an unexpected points finish.
Mike Krack said the outcome was aided by the characteristics of the Zandvoort circuit, and warned that tougher races could lie ahead. He also said Aston Martin has not yet extracted the full potential from its upgraded AMR26.
