“The motor. So… again, I think the engine is leaking water and they told me to stop. I had to stop, and so there is no… the summary of the year”. This is how Fernando Alonso began his remarks on ‘DAZN F1’ after his farewell career at Alpine ended with another abandonment due to the umpteenth problem with his power unit this year.
“I think we were faster in all the races throughout the year, but I think there were 6 DNFs, in Australia the car broke in the time trial, in Austria I didn’t even start the sprint race, in Canada I ran out of the battery … so it’s not just 6 dropouts, 9 or 10…”, added the man from Oviedo, who was dismayed by the many reliability failures he suffered and which affected his results in 2022. However, the man from Oviedo didn’t waste any more time in mourning and chose to change the chip from scratch. Fernando Alonso is already looking “with enthusiasm” in his new project with Aston Martin, which starts this Monday.
The Spaniard confirmed this Monday that his new seat will be built with Aston Martin. All this, to make his debut on Tuesday with the green team and begin to get to know the whole team and their methods at the top of this 2022 car in the Pirelli test that will be carried out with tires next year.
“Slate and clean account? Yes. I look forward to sitting down tomorrow, starting a new project, which is always exciting and it will be even luckier 2023”, Fernando pointed out. Your Alpine nightmare is over. You can start a new challenge from now on.
