Description
A highly technical and rarely available mechanical component, this right-hand upper swing arm assembly originates from Aston Martin’s 2021 Formula One campaign — the team’s historic return season to the grid as a works constructor.
The 2021 AMR21, driven by Sebastian Vettel and Lance Stroll, competed in a tightly contested field during the final year of the pre-ground-effect aerodynamic regulations. Beneath the aerodynamic surfaces, precision-engineered suspension components such as this played a crucial role in delivering performance, stability and tyre management.
The upper swing arm (wishbone) is a fundamental element of the car’s suspension system, connecting the wheel assembly to the chassis while controlling wheel movement and maintaining optimal tyre contact with the track surface. It is responsible for managing loads under braking, acceleration and cornering, ensuring stability and responsiveness at speeds exceeding 200mph.
Manufactured from ultra-lightweight yet immensely strong composite materials, the assembly is engineered to exacting tolerances to withstand extreme forces while minimising weight. Its aerodynamic shaping also contributes to airflow management around the car, highlighting the dual-purpose design philosophy of modern Formula One components.
Displaying authentic race-used character, this component offers a unique insight into the mechanical complexity of a Formula One car — an area often unseen but critical to performance.
A rare and technically significant artefact, this 2021 upper swing arm assembly represents the precision engineering, structural integrity and performance demands at the heart of Formula One.
