Alonso’s stats put him at the top of F1 drivers this season

that’s it Fernando Alonso is starring in an incredible start to the F1 2023 season is known. In fact, the specialists of F1with the sum of the notes they gave him in the first 5 races of the year, put him as the best valued of the entire grid in the general classification of the famous ‘Power Ranking’ from the competition’s official website. Add 4 podiums in 5 races with an average of 15 points per appointmentsomething that speaks for itself. But there is another fact that F1 wants to highlight and puts him at the top of the F1 drivers this season: his direct comparison with his partner at Aston Martin, the Canadian Lance Stroll.

Fernando Alonso was ahead of his partner in all races and in the overall number of 102 points accumulated by Aston Martin, 75 added by the Asturian and only 27 with the signature of the Canadian. That means, more than 70% of the total points that the Silverstone team had were harvested by the Spaniards.

In this sense, F1 wants to highlight on its social networks that Oviedo is one of the two drivers already he managed to outscore his partner in all races with a resounding 5 to 0, something only Japan’s Yuki Tsunoda has achieved compared to his AlphaTauri teammate Nyck De Vries.

5-0 also in qualifying

This data is also used for qualifying sessions. Fernando Alonso beat Stroll 5-0 after one lap in ‘qualy’, something Alex Albon also achieved about Logan Sargeant in Williams and Lando Norris with respect to Oscar Piastri in McLaren. In the cases of Albon and Sargeant, this is something normal, because Nyck De Vries debuted in a full season this year in F1 and Logan Sargeant is a ‘rookie’.

So that, Fernando Alonso was the only driver on the grid who managed to overtake his teammate in all races and qualifying sessions. No other.

Lance Stroll was 6th in Bahrain, retired in Arabia, 4th in Australia (his best position), 7th in Baku and 8th in the sprint race and 12th in Miami, out of points in the American event. The Canadian did not add any podium, while Fernando Alonso has 4 podiums in 5 appointments and his worst result is 4th place, always inside the points. Effectiveness and regularity are taken to the maximum.
