Canadian Formula 1 Grand Prix 2024: Alonso: “70 laps were very different and exhausting”

Fernando Alonso I ended up being satisfied in Canada not only for finishing sixth (and the last outing), but for the fact of finishing the race.

It was a difficult career.”, The circle was only two meters wide , and if you got out of the lane, you could get into an accident , so congratulations to everyone Because there were 70 different laps, with different conditions, with different times, very exhausting, ” he admits at 14.

“In a certain sense It was a little ugly to drive , because you couldn’t go to the limit of the car , you didn’t know the available grip, when it was dry, then it rained or laps and it wasn’t easy to get a tire strategy or read the race Or what a safe line to follow, very happy with the points, sixth and seventh is a good result for Aston Martin after two difficult races,” he says after double zero in both Mola and manaco.

Fernando had another one of those electric duels that force the director to leave everything to follow 14 and 44, against Hamilton, who held 25 laps until a slow stop left him after the Englishman. “Bah, it’s okay, in the end Hamilton was one of the fastest on the track and his presence behind him was a bit symbolic, it would have happened to me sooner or later, so the Stop didn’t affect much either,” he admits. “But at least you didn’t pass me on the right track, just in the pits, let’s be clear,” Adi laughed.
