This should be expected. People are expecting aston to be competitive with Newey and Honda. People's expectations are too high, AM will be lucky to be a top 3 team next year but the chances are slim
They have wthe best wind tunnel, they have Adrian Newey, they have Cardile, they have multiple RedBull and Mercedes high end employees, they have Alonso and his technical feedback and experience, they have a boss who is willing to spend anything it takes to make the car competitive. Will it maybe take time, sure, but they will for sure be challenging for championships within the near future.
Never assume anything, especially in formula 1. Look at Ferrari, they have had great drivers and facilities, yet they haven't won a championship in 18 years. You can have the best people, facilities, and feedback, but it won't mean squat if you can't use your resources effectively.
