Fernando Alonso has his fang ready. As usual. She has it in case someone fails. In case there is an option. In case he can scratch a victory and reach 33 and, why not, in case he can fight until the end to achieve his third Formula 1 World Championship. Yes, he has finally mentioned it. and yes again a Red Bull has ‘eliminated’ itself in a classification. This time, in Australia. and if in Saudi Arabia was max verstappen The person who said ‘up to here’ for a shield on this occasion was Sergio Pérez. It has been the Aztec who has fallen prematurely. Who has practically not been able to make a single curve in Albert Park. Because in Q1 it was already out. Because, what’s more, it was in the third of the curves that shape Melbourne. He was already more than nerv...
The Formula 1 comes to the circuit Albert Park (Australia) for his third round of the season before taking almost a full month’s break before the next race. For this reason, all the teams want to finish with a good taste in the mouth and a good direction to continue with the development of their single-seaters. The top favorite for the race is max verstappen. The Dutchman has once again confirmed the notorious superiority of the Red Bull, although his difference in Australia seems less than what he had in Saudi Arabia. In the fastest lap he is indisputable and in rhythm too, but the current world champion continues to complain about the gear changes, something that has been happening all season. Instead, his teammate Sergio Perez is on the other side of the coin. The Mexican, due to ...
Fernando Alonso has frightened to Helmut Marko. The Asturian driver, who finally has a competitive car capable of anything in an Aston Martin that has scored two podiums in two races, The Australian GP will start fourth behind of max verstappen and of the mercedes by George Russell and by Lewis Hamilton. But, despite that, those of the energy drinks are clear that he is their rival. How everything has had to change in months so that even having two Mercedes behind its driver look at who goes fourth. But yes, it is exactly like that. That is what Alonso and Aston Martin have achieved. What they have achieved in just a couple of Grand Prix. They have gone from wanting to lead the midfield to being the great threat of Red Bull. The biggest concern of the world champion team and the car that h...
Aleix Espargaró has once again spoken clearly. after his words about f1 and after the Marc Marquez accident with Oliveira at the Portuguese GP, The Aprilia rider explained what that rivalry that is always talked about between teammates means to him. On this occasion, with Maverick Viñales: “Yes, of course It piss me off that my partner is in front, more than anyone”. And be careful what he points to: “I prefer to finish seventh and he ninth to be second and that he win”. “This is so, but you have to have I respectand be humble enough,” he insists. Because they are teammates, but also rivals: “I lost a lot of time with Maverick, and I spent an hour with telemetry”. “It’s about working as a team. When we fight for the World Cup spar...
Follow the tension at Red Bull. follow at least with Sergio Perez. The Mexican pilot had a bad, very bad, classification in the Australian GP after some Free 3s in which his car, the RB19, was tremendously nervous. Rarely was he able to make a corner ‘at full power’ without going off the line, without blocking or without making a mistake. And so he reached the classification. Because everything stayed the same. And in Q1, in turn 3, he went out to not being able to get the car out of the sand and cause the first, only and last red flag of the session. On the radio it was more than clear: “It’s the same f***ing problem! We haven’t fixed it!” He said that, but Red Bull, through Helmut Marko, has denied that this was the case: “We had a problem with t...
Esteban Ocon and the Alpine team they promised them very happy in Australia. the track, where Fernando Alonso he was close to taking pole position in 2022, it seemed to be perfect for a good performance from the French brand… but the Frenchman did not have the best of luck in the ranking. And that it seemed that they could be among the best. It seemed like that because in Q1 it was not bad. Not much less. But then, when the rest started to put more into their respective cars, Ocon began to suffer. He began to not feel as comfortable on the court. Neither him, neither did Pierre Gasly. Of course, of the two it was the rookie with Alpine who could smile more. because it was he who went to Q3. He did it by the hair, but he arrived. He came in to start ninth in the Australian race, from ...
There was a time when shooting brakes, the coupes with the largest trunk capacity, were the most. And the Jensen GT It is one of them. It was the shooting brake version of the Jensen-Healey, a historic sports car highlighted by the Sports Car Club of America as one of the only cars to win the Production D Championship in its first year of racing… and it would repeat four other times in following years. The Jensen-Healey was a British sports car developed by Jensen and Donald Healey with the idea of having such a car below the Jaguar E-Type and above other popular roadsters such as the MGB. On that steel monocoque, with independent front suspension, the Jensen GT was developed, which hardly differed aesthetically in the rear. The Jensen-Healey, was manufactured between 1972 and 1976...
He had it in his hand. Again, it was close. Very close. Painting the first sector purple. Pressing, and a lot, Max Verstappen. Putting everything he had in his Aston Martin. In his AMR23. Leaving the magic that he always has in each zone from the Australian track. Until the end it was believed. Until the end I try. until the end it was Fernando Alonso fighting for the pole. Fighting to return to a place that hasn’t been in a long time. For too long. Since in Germany, in the far, far away 2012, was the fastest on a Saturday. Hopes were pinned on Albert Park. And there still are, because if the Aston Martin stands out in something, it is in race pace. It is also in traction. When going around a curve. At the entrance and exit. In the braking Yeah, that’s why Melbourne was special...
