If something has shown Fernando Alonso in all its stages in Formula 1 is his motivation. It does not matter if the car did not enter the points or that, as now with Aston Martin, will aspire to the podium every weekend. At 41, he continues to aspire to that third world championship.
In their new team they hallucinate with their work. Mike Krack, your boss says it’s the first and the last to leave the factory of Silverstone. As if I had the keys to it, come on. This has been said by the Aston manager in statements to the ‘BBC’.
“Since the first day he has contributed lots of extra energy, a lot of extra motivation to the team, just because of his way of being and the way he approaches everything. It’s very, very positive,” Krack said.
He assures that one of the most important factors in Fernando’s work is that it is an “example”: “If you lead by example, it is very easy to lead. If you say ‘the team has to push’, but you’re on the beach… It’s much more difficult to get the team to push like that than if the driver is there too.”
“He’s the first to arrive in the morning and the last to leave. It’s little things that, as a team, you notice. He is serious about what he is doing and it is infecting everyone”, says the head of the green team.
Aston Martin, 3 podiums and prudence
On the other hand, he once again insisted on being “cautious”: “The range of circuits is very different, so you can change the grill. That’s why I always say we have to be careful when drawing too many conclusions.”
Aston has scored three podiums in three races. And from baku will be wearing new parts: “Being competitive on all three tracks means we can be confident for other circuits.”
The differences between the teams “are very small” and that means that everything can change from one weekend to another: “You can’t say after a race that you are here or there, more data is needed…”.
