lewis hamilton and Fernando Alonso they have been bitter rivals for many years of his career. With the passage of time, their relationship has improved to the point that the seven-time world champion dared to joke with the Spaniard’s age while he was listening to him after the Canadian Grand Prix.
The Mercedes driver managed to overtake Alonso at the start and move into second position. Despite this, halfway through the career, the ’14’ he surpassed him again and from that moment there was a battle in the distance that ended with the Asturian second and the British third.
When asked on the ‘DAZN’ microphones about the departure, Hamilton dared to hesitate between laughing at Alonso: “He’s getting older. That’s why his reaction capacity is slowing down”.
He probably did it consciously next to him was Fernando Alonso himself, who was attending the British press. The Asturian listened carefully to the joke of his rival and warned him while he hit him in the back: “Austria is in two weeks. Two weeks”.
The relationship between the two has gotten better, proof of this is this joke, but Alonso is as competitive as anyone else and I’m sure that this warning in a joking tone on the inside was not and in Austria (the next race) he will try to avoid it becoming repeat the loss of a position at the start.
