Brazilian Grand Prix Formula 1 2024: Alonso, with back pain: “I finished for the people of Valencia”

The Brazilian Grand Prix ended in a nightmare for Fernando Alonso. Aston Martin is practically driverless at the moment, and it has a lot of recoil, so it ends up exhausting drivers physically and even dangerously.

In fact, The ASTRI admits, with a few laps left to finish the race, that he did not retire to dedicate the race to his mechanics, Who did a great job of fixing ‘ 14 ‘ Amr 24 after his accident in S3. “I’m going to finish the race on the mechanics. They did a great job today, but my back hurts a lot, cough. This rebound is not normal, ” deca.

There was nothing at stake, because he was in 14th place and the points were unattainable and so he wanted to get to lap 69 to complete the Test at Interlagos. Actually, when I was about to finish the race The Spaniard ordered a medical car, explaining that he was about to reach the limit and that he made a superhuman effort“I’m getting a medical car ready and I’ll follow it. So be close to him when he stops, ” he asks his engineers.

Finally, I have not yet finished the medical car, but It cost him a lot to get out of his car. If he seemed physically exhausted , he helped himself from the aura to get up and stayed for 15 seconds leaning on this aura, With his head down and with one of his mechanics talking to him, maybe asking him how he was and thanking him for finishing the race. When he got out of the car, he hugged his mechanic and went to the weight zone slowly, very tired.

Alonso finished for Valencia

After weighing and statements to the press, Fernando first went to Aston Martin for hospitality. “I’m not feeling well, a few hours ago I was better,”Alonso explained on the back. He may seem distraught and worn out, but aware of the situation he went through in Valencia, he wanted to remember all the people who suffered: “Under normal circumstances, it would not have ended, but it had to be done for the mechanics, for me too, who suffered a little before arriving here, for the people of Valencia, for many people who were in worse situations than the rebound I had today, ” he recalls.
