The Aston Martin AMR24 is a Formula One racing car designed and developed by the Aston Martin Aramco F1 Team which competed in the 2024 Formula One World Championship. It was the fourth Formula One car entered by Aston Martin since rejoining the sport in 2021, and was driven by two-time world champion Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll with reserve driver duties handled by Felipe Drugovich and Stoffel Vandoorne, the former making the team's two mandatory rookie free practice stand-ins in the Mexican and Abu Dhabi Grands Prix. [1] Compared to its predecessor, the AMR23 which clinched 8 podiums across the 2023 season, the AMR24 sported worse performance and did not score a podium during the entire season, despite the team retaining their 5th place in the Constructors' Championship from the previous season.

The AMR24 was revealed on 12 February 2024. It featured a livery largely similar to the AMR22 and AMR23, although title sponsor Aramco had greater presence on the car, along the sidepods, front wing and rear wing. The livery featured more bare carbon fibre, to save weight, a trend seen across the grid in 2024.
