Fernando Alonso defended his seventh starting position very well, without taking too many risks with him Alpine and managing end tires under pressure from hamilton (8) and a Stephen Ocon who was in ninth place, but eventually was 12th due to a five-second penalty. The man from Oviedo has completed a great career to maximize his result. He thinks he could be sixth if he came in earlier to put the dry tires on, but he was satisfied when he got out of the car.
The man from Oviedo made a smart race. Or included radioed the team Alpine that Fernando accelerated his walk because the Oviedo native was making a ‘barrier’. “Alonso is blocking Lewis. How do you want to push him?” Said Esteban, having to open up space to his pursuers.
But honestly, Fernando slowed down so as not to break the tires and thus reach the end of the race without stopping again. Despite this, the Asturian continued his career, without moving, also ending up squeezing and leaving Lewis. Because of how hard it was to overtake these vehicles, Lewis didn’t overtake him when Fernando managed his wheels. But when the Spaniard sped off at the end, the Brit could no longer catch up with his Mercedes.
“We knew it was pretty optimistic for our car to make 33 laps with the yellows, so I did a lot of tire management, and then when they told me that Esteban (Ocon) had a 5” penalty, I started to open up a bit with a gap. But Hamilton may have no wheels or he had no way to go faster and he was a bit angry. But that’s what there is “said the Spaniard. Final message to the 7-time champion, who didn’t keep up with the Spanish, who was driving a car that no longer wins.
“It’s been a long career. I don’t even know what time it is. It’s a lot of time racing in all conditions. In the beginning it wasn’t even possible to start because of the level of grip and visibility. And then, extreme, intermediate dry tires, We’ve been through it all. And it’s a very easy race to make mistakes. I’m always focused and we get some good points, “he expressed on ‘DAZN F1’.
“Likewise, we could have done sixth, because I think we entered a lap later to put on dry tires,” he added after the Monegasque event. Smiling he did that. He had a clean career and achieved the desired points, chaining two Grand Prix adding points in a row after four races without making it due to some stage of bad luck. It takes 10 points. You want to keep adding.
