Fernando Alonso This year he became the star of many radio conversations with his engineer that went viral on social networks because of the brilliance the driver showed in the middle of the race. In these communications, repeatedly, Fernando Alonso showed the amazing reading of the race that he does while piloting more than 300km/h or even on complex routes where you can drive between walls, with no margin for error. And in Brazil, he once again made it clear why many consider him the best combination of driver and engineer. He did so in some surprising conversation with his track engineer at a moment of maximum tension, when ‘Checo’ Pérez He is chasing it in search of his podium position.
As demonstrated by the ‘DAZN F1’ program called ‘F1 Code’, which has access to all the radios and cameras on board the F1 cars, The Spaniard and his track engineer had a conversation where the Spaniard needed to know the target time requested by the team. for those laps to maximize the performance of your car and tires.
Code language to your engineer
As is usually the case with F1 On the radio, the engineer and the pilot must often communicate using some secret code so as not to reveal their cards to their rivals or their strategies. Consequently, the track engineer, who did not want his opponents to know the lap time they had set for Fernando, had to give the Asturian clues in the following way: “I’m confused about the target time. I remember the target time of Plan B. Should I go 7 tenths faster than I should go in Plan B?”Fernando asked, suggesting a form of code language to determine the time he should mark.
“Yes, Fernando, that’s right. 7 tenths below Plan B’s time. Or 3 tenths above Plan A’s”, his engineer answered. Just in case, Fernando Alonso made another comment that would serve as confirmation of the exact time he should take the next turn, just to avoid misunderstanding.
“So from now on I have to ride in… today’s temperature limit? That number?” It specifies a certain maximum temperature number of some element of the car, perhaps the engine. “Yes, Fernando, exactly”the engineer said with a laugh.
“Like the limit temperature number we have today. I’m impressed,” added his interlocutor, hallucinating from the wall of the Aston Martin that the engineer had his pilot in his mind, able to speak in code, make calculations and temperature concern. limit of an element when he continued to drive to his maximum at Interlagos, with Pérez behind.
He gave a recital with his changing lines
As mentioned since the end of the Brazilian GP, Fernando Alonso He gave more magic recitals during the same career. When ‘Czech’ chasing him, Fernando gave a recital. It seemed that the Mexican, with a superior car and better speed, could easily overtake him. But Alonso started to shoot, increasing his speed to get away, toying with his opponent.
And then, with ‘Czech’ attached, andHe began to lay out the curves in a different way than usual to allow himself more traction on the straights and at the same time put Pérez in dirty air. so its downforce is reduced. Thus, it also prevented Pérez from studying his ideal route. Magical.
