Beyond the battle for second and fourth place in the Constructors’ World Championship, other great incentives and excitement in this final race of the year in Yas Marina Circuit I looked for how it would end 2023 F1 World Championship classification after the Abu Dhabi GPespecially in the fight for fourth position.
Fernando Alonso and Carlos Sainz They came in tied for fourth place with 200 points. Lando Norris, with McLaren on whom much is expected in Abu Dhabi, is only 5 points behind. And Leclerc, at the age of 12. The qualifying session turned everything upside down. Sainz almost said goodbye to that race with 16th place on the grid and in the race he was unable to defend himself, finishing 7th in the World Championship. Meanwhile, things got even more exciting between Fernando Alonso, Charles Leclerc and Lando Norris.
On Saturday, the Spaniard considered the battle lost by declaring that McLaren and Ferrari were faster. I thought I would do nothing. All he had to do was go off the rails and fish in the turbulent rivers. And a good fight with Lewis Hamilton for the 7th position, where Fernando was once again smart and impressive despite his lower speed on the straight, was very important. Those points, along with those achieved by Leclerc, who was 2nd, and a Norris who was 5th, made Alonso achieve something that seemed impossible. He confirmed his 4th place in the 2023 F1 World Championship. Unbelievable but true.
The 2023 F1 World Championship classification after the Abu Dhabi GPand therefore, the overall final championship, ended in Fernando Alonso is 4th with 206 points, same as Leclerc (5th). The 8 podiums he achieved Fernando Alonso helped him break the tie and finish in his best World Championship position since 2013, when he was 2nd in Ferrari.
So, after the decided champion (Verstappen), runner-up (Pérez) and third place (Hamilton), finished with Alonso (4th), Leclerc (5th), Norris (6th) and Sainz (7th)in a harsh end to Carlos’ great season. Russell finished 8th in the F1 World Championship, 25 points behind Carlos, with Piastri in 9th and Lance Stroll, Alonso’s teammate, in 10th. The Canadian from Aston Martin finished the course with 74 points, 132 points less than the Asturian.
