Aston Martin have learned from what happened to Fernando Alonso in Alpine. About how the French team was not able to give the stripes that it should have given to a champion, to a double champion, of the world as the Asturian is. How that led to absurd fights between him and Or with, who had their culmination in Brazil with several touches between the two in the sprint race.
That made, there yes, Alpine say enough and begin to mark a little territory. Several had to pass, several like the one in Saudi Arabia in Jeddah, for the Gauls to put a red line and they will end the ‘free battles’ between Ocon and Alonso.
Now, as Fernando has recognized, number 1, the leader in Aston Martin, is something that is more than clear.
Because whoever holds the reins, for “experience” As Alonso admits, it will be him.
“They have expectations about what I can contribute. I have more than 20 years of experience, and they want me to take that leading role in the development of the car. It’s exciting,” he says in words on ‘DAZN’.
And he continues: “Taking on that responsibility, even if it is an extra pressure, excites me. It motivates me to be able to help them.”
Because Alonso fully trusts Aston Martin: “I have prepared. I’ve seen the evolution of the car, I’ve gone to the factory… I’m looking forward to it starting.”
It will be from February 23 to 25 when the tests take place in Bahrain. And on that same track they will play the first Grand Prix of the season, weekend from March 3 to 5.
