Unfortunately in the first 2 or 3 gears the Aston Martin has both it's power and torque limited electronically. I understand to DB11 levels respectively. That's a huge disadvantage and you can't recover from that.
Also the Aston Martin is a true continent cruising GT and the Ferrari more a thinly disguised Supercar. I remember Top Gear stating as such.
