The journalist bets on green Antonio Lobato’s prediction that triggers the illusion with Fernando Alonso and Aston Martin: “First there is Red Bull, and then…”
“If today were the Bahrain GP, Verstappen, Pérez and Alonso would be on the podium.” This is how forceful Ted Kravitz, from ‘Sky Sports’, is after seeing to Fernando driving the Aston Martin in Bahrain tests.

With Red Bull unstoppable, Ferrari degraded the tires a lot and in Mercedes they suffered, and not exactly a little, with the behavior of a car nervesor that it blocked wheels in ...
Fernando Alonso It is the great proper name of the Bahrain tests. the asturian completed a great mock race what have you done what mercedes and Red Bull, that seemed to be tremendously far from the benefits of the Aston Martin, at least a priori, they have pointed to the British as great rivals in Sakhir. The podium, which seemed impossible, it is not so much anymore. It may be yes, or it may be no. But if the tests are confirmed, if the long run and the pace of the race It is the one that Alonso showed in the tests, Fernando can be there. He can put Aston Martin on the right track to be the best of the rest and to reduce the gap with the Red Bull, the Ferrari and the Mercedes. In this sense, the two-time F1 world champion has analyzed the Bahrain tests and how the AMR23 behaves on the tra...
three days have sufficed for that aston martin pass from being ‘a possible’ to be a reality. From being a maybe to a more than real option in this Formula 1 World Championship start. The reason, the tremendous exhibition that Fernando Alonso and the Silverstone team performed in the Bahrain tests, and that has already led to those who place them as the second team on the grid for Sakhir. Authorized voices as far as F1 is concerned, such as that of Antonio Lobato. The journalist, who already said on his Twitter that “the choice of enemies has changed” After Alonso’s long run, he has made a forecast about the position of each team in the TikTok of ‘SoyMotor’. For him, only Red Bull is above it. But is that Mercedes speaks in the same direction. Toto ...
A week ago, Juan was driving calmly on his way to his family’s house. He was in a hurry, without a higher level of stress. However, he was about to enter a conflictive intersection, between the avenues Mariano Otero and López Mateos sur, in Guadalajara. The traffic light turned green and he drove off slowly to continue on his way, when suddenly another driver, who saw his attempt to pass him on the right frustrated, blew aggressively at him, blaming him for the existence of a piece of sidewalk that prevented him from doing what he did. what did he want. Juan’s indignation at his attitude produced anger and this was a completely irrational action., to stop the car, whistle back and show the other driver the middle finger of his right hand, as if it were necessary to emphasize th...

In a drawer that seemed to be impossible when signed by Aston Martin in the summer of 2022 and that now, after Sakhir’s trials, does not seem far from unattainable.

I already they said in Mercedeswho see the Silverstone car, which by the way they motorize, in the second step of a supposed Formula 1 grid after the tests. Because they not only put them ahead of themselves, but also They also rank above Ferrari. Behind only Red Bull, a team that seems to be unattainable after the displays of Sergio Pérez and a Max Verstappen who already warns that the RB19 is a better car than last ...
Fernando Alonso can finish on the podium of the Bahrain GP. He doesn’t say it. Neither did Aston Martin. nor the spectacular data that he signed in the tests. They say it, nothing more and nothing less, than in mercedes.

It not only puts Aston Martin ahead of Mercedes, but also puts them ahead of Ferrari and only behind the unbeatable Red Bull. The truth is that, after the t...
There was a time when coupes were aspirational cars, for those who wanted a model to differentiate themselves. That space was taken over by SUVs for a while, but since they already account for 60% of sales in Spain, the concept of SUV coupé has spread, such as the Volkswagen ID.5, an electric SUV with a more stretched-out body than that of the ID. .4. There are few driving differences between the two. Because both give priority to the comfort of the passengers, although since you are sitting a little closer to the ground, you can better perceive how the car behaves in a curve. Both maneuver well and, despite the electric nature with a lot of weight in the lower part, the weight and height is noticeable in the curve. The autonomy, as we saw in our test, allows you to make trips with it, as ...
