Lights and shadows in a legendary race
In addition to remembering figures such as Adrian CamposAlonso recognized the special space that Flavio Briatore occupies his heart, because he is the godfather who helped him reach the top: “We have been together for 23 years and the relationship only strengthened, which is almost paternal. He was someone I trusted and grew close to. In professional sports you can easily see people who are there without interest and those who are really there and sincere, which is Flavio.”
Regarding his iconic image with his arms outstretched and screaming on top of the Renault after winning his first World Championship at Interlagos, Fernando assured that: “I’ve seen it a thousand and one times, everyone remembers it. Brazil 2005. It reminds me of the liberation of a dream. Everyone expresses it in a way and I did it like this, with a loud shout where 15 years of my sports career is going. The efforts of my parents, Genius Marcowhich helped me a lot in karting; Adrian Camposthat gave me the opportunity to get into a car; Flavius (Briatore), which gave me the opportunity to join Renault… In Formula 1 There are a lot of pressures and it takes all the time you have, because you hold a team of a thousand people on your shoulders.. In this cry there are fifteen years of pressure, tension and nerves and when you get what you’ve dreamed of all your life, you express it like this.”
Almost 20 years after that moment, it was clear to him what he would change and the advice he would give to the Fernando of the past: “I don’t think I enjoyed those moments as much as I should have. I’m 24 and 25 years old and I’m already thinking about the next career and the next thing. I thought I’d do it again, and I have very little memory of that afternoon, that night, going home or cuddling with my mom and my sister. I don’t have as many memories as I shouldso I tell myself to reduce the intensity a bit, enjoy the moment and next week think about the next challenge.”
However, he remembers well the five years he lived at Ferrari, which he assured was special and where he lived the best moments in a Formula 1: “Valencia 2012 was my best career and the closest I felt to being invincible, to being in another dimension.”
A man with few friends
Fernando also reflected on the biggest rivalry he’s had in his entire career, with Lewis Hamilton, and how it developed: “I think now there is a different kind of rivalry. I didn’t think we would be friends in the future. I don’t think we share many things, but in 2007 the rivalry reached a higher level. We begin to notice tension and friction. You come to the team meeting, and You see how he has complaints to correct and improve himself, not the same as us, and thus gain a further advantage. Many things destroy harmony. We are young and immature, me first, but we also have a boss who doesn’t know how to control the situation. What happened will stay under lock and key, I deleted a lot of things. Every time we get ahead, it’s extra, and I think it always will be.”
Also, he made sure of that Fisichella He is the only driver he considers a friendship, although he credits maintaining a good relationship with Max Verstappen and Checo Pérez: “Both Max and Checo are two drivers you can trust on the track. Verstappen had more incidents in his early days, but I think we are very similar. We like similar things. We go to team clothes and a backpack, we run on Saturday and Sunday and we leave with a backpack again. “We like simple things”.
