Reviewing the best moments of Fernando Alonso in his long career in Formula 1there is an overtaking that stands out and that could perfectly enter his ‘top 3’.
2005, Japanese Grand Prix and Michael Schumacher. In the mythical 130R, the Asturian passed the ‘Kaiser’ in a maneuver that was the confirmation of a pilot who would end up being crowned champion at the end of the year.
Well, that Suzuka track has been chosen by Alonso as his favorite circuit. This is how he explained it in an interview with ‘Bang & Olufsen’.
“If I had to choose just one circuit, I would choose Suzuka. I think it’s my favorite. It has a lot of high-speed corners,” he pointed out.
It should be remembered that in Japanese territory he has only won once, in 2006, when Felipe Massa and Giancarlo Fisichella they joined him on the podium.
In addition to Suzuka, Fernando has pointed out another circuit that he also likes and where he has also won. In fact, at Aston Martin they believe the 33 will get there. And it is none other than Monaco.
“I also like the urban layout of Monaco, although I would choose it for the complete package of the entire weekend. Many things happen in that very special Grand Prix, but Suzuka is my favourite”, added the man from Oviedo.
