Again Fernando Alonso. It didn’t matter if his Aston Martin had DRS problems. It did not matter how difficult it was to warm up the tires. The Asturian always has magic in his hands. He showed it again in Baku, used to doing magic on this circuit.
He started eighth… and finished sixth. he went on to albon in the first corners and then attacked lewis hamilton. Again the fight between the two champions, who were teammates at McLaren many years ago.
The one from Aston Martin won the game over Mercedes. A master movement to take that sixth position. Position that he was able to maintain because the DRS finally did open up.
His teammate, Lance Stroll, he finished eighth just behind Hamilton. A good result for the two green cars considering all the suffering they had been through.
A troubled river, gain of p̷e̷s̷c̷a̷d̷o̷r̷e̷s̷ Fernando Alonso
