Fernando Alonso he’s already looking forward to Abu Dhabi, passing the checkered flag and putting on the green Aston Martin. In Mexico, the Asturian suffered again a new problem in your car and, in words to ‘DAZN’, it was shown that confidence in Alpine is dwindling.
Because there are already many. Many times that he has had to retire in the race when he was comfortably on points. Meanwhile, his teammate Esteban Ocon is still happy in a car that for him is a torment for not even knowing if he will be able to go through the checkered flag.
“I was 30 seconds ahead of Ocon and the McLarens. It was comfortable. Here and in Austin I was doing the best races of the year,” he said.
All for one piece: “I lost a cylinder, and for 20 laps I was there making a half ridiculous. In the end it broke, and it was for the best.”
So point to Alpine: “I wanted to stop for a long time… but the team I wanted to see if there was a safety car or something.
“Back to car 14, as always”, Fernando Alonso reaffirmed again in the fifth abandonment of 2022 due to a mechanical cause.
As for his driving, the Spaniard is “happy”: “Personally, good. Better than in qualifying. All good until the engine stopped again.”
