Aston was an active racing team in Formula 1 in 1952 . Bill Aston's private team was only registered for four World Championship races, of which it started two.

The Briton Robin Montgomerie-Charrington drove the first race in Belgium , which he had to give up on the 17th lap due to a technical defect (electrical system). This was followed by the British Grand Prix , for which Bill Aston was able to qualify, but he had to cancel the race due to further technical defects. In Germany , Bill Aston dropped out again in the second lap due to a lack of oil pressure, and in the last reported race in Italy , Bill Aston missed the qualification. After these four races, the racing team also ended, and Bill Aston and Robert Montgomerie-Charrington ended their Formula 1 careers.
