Fernando Alonsoyearns for victory number 33. He arrived at the Canadian Grand Prix having achieved five podiums in the first seven racesbut that for the Asturian is not enough.
After passing Lewis Hamilton with a sensational manoeuvre, Fernando did not want to settle for the second position and began to close the gap with Max Verstappen.
Despite the Aston Martin being the fastest driver on the track, he had to deal with a rear brake problemwhich forced him to manage the temperature by slowing down.
However, Fernando wanted to push himself to the limit to try to put pressure on Verstappen and let his team know. “Tell me when I can stop managing. I want to win this race!“, the Oviedo exclaimed on the radio.
Alonso pushed to the maximum and achieved what at the time was the fastest lap of the race, but Verstappen managed to replicate the times of the Asturian to win the race without further complications.
