Fernando Alonso He was champion of Formula 1 in the years 2005 and 2006 with Renault. Almost two decades have passed and the Spaniard continues to have that third championship between his eyebrows. And although he is far away, with Aston Martin he has recovered the options to do important things in F1.
With the green team, he is about to equal some records he achieved then. He has accumulated four podium finishes in five races and in those two seasons he has had at least five podium finishes in the first six races.
That means that if the two-time champion gets on the podium in Monaco (this weekend and also with rain) would equal its records with Renault. almost nothing to their 41 years.
And precisely the urban layout of Monte Carlo has been indicated by Alonso himself and by Aston Martin as a great opportunity to add the long-awaited victory number 33. The one that nobody expected in the short term and that could arrive in 2023.
Alonso is living a second youth. “You had never left, it was the car,” he told her Jenson Button. And indeed it is. The Asturian continues signing ‘top’ performances and now the AMR23 accompanies him. Which did not happen with Alpine and with McLaren Honda in the recent past in F1.
The Monaco Grand Prix starts on Friday. one of the most anticipated appointments of the year. And this year even more for Alonsismo. Will 33 arrive? Will Alonso achieve the miracle by finishing ahead of the two Red Bulls? Everything can happen.
