Pedro de la Rosa it is clear. Fernando Alonso may be, despite the hobby of eg Alpine to look at his age, before his possible best version at 41 years old. The Catalan, ambassador of Aston Martin, also speaks with evidence about what the Asturian can do in his debut with the green colors.
And it is that for him the experience is and was a degree when he competed, also 41 years old, with HRT in 2012 even wearing contact lenses.
“My performance didn’t drop. Not only did I not feel slower, if not that everything that I had lived as an experience made me be something more complete”, he affirmed in words to various media.
De la Rosa argues it: “I was close to my best version, sometimes it was even better. I didn’t notice a performance drop.”
“If you feel it, I don’t know how long it can take until you start to feel that, it’s something progressive and normal”.
In addition, he warns about how he sees Alonso: “When I look into his eyes You think you don’t know how many more years this guy can be.”
“It’s just that it’s the same Fernando as the one who the seat was made with Minardi 20 years ago”, De la Rosa judgment.
In this sense, De la Rosa tells what can happen more than the fact of being more or less years old: “I think that the main thing, what makes everything ‘click’ and say that you need to leave it, is traveling and never being home”.
