BARCELONA, June 11 (Reuters) - ⁠Aston Martin expect a tough reality check in Spain this weekend ⁠after Fernando Alonso brought the struggling Silverstone-based team their first point ‌of the Formula One season in Monaco last Sunday.

The Spaniard finished 11th on track in the Mediterranean principality but was promoted into the scoring positions after a penalty dropped Cadillac's Sergio Perez ​from 10th, denying the Mexican what would have ⁠been a breakthrough first point for ⁠the F1 newcomers.
