New Grand Prix weekend, new World Cup event starting with questions about the future of Fernando Alonso. The Asturian driver ended his contract with Aston Martin and, due to rumors in that area Max Verstappen in exchange Lewis Hamilton in Mercedesasked the Spaniard if he thought he could be on the list of red bull in case a gap appears.
“If that’s the case “I think I’m on the list, because I don’t have any contract at the moment.”. It’s better to be on that list than the others,” he explained in statements reported by ‘Marca’. Despite this, the Spaniard stressed that we should not believe all the rumours, referring to the possible departure of Verstappen towards the Mercedes.
On the other hand, Alonso also stressed that he still has to decide if he wants to continue racing after his current contract expires this year: “If I do this it is because I truly believe that there is a possibility of winning races.“It is clear that those from Milton Keynes are best placed to achieve that goal.
Don’t expect much change about Bahrain
In the first race of the season, Aston Martin was the fifth car on the grid behind Red Bull, Ferrari, Mercedes and McLaren. Despite hopes for improvement, Alonso doesn’t expect things to change much about Sakhir
“I don’t expect differences, last year there were also similarities in Bahrain and Jeddah. Ahead of Red Bull, McLaren are probably a little better than Bahrain because they are strong in the high-speed corners. We said throughout the winter that Red Bull and Ferrari are a bit better than the others,” he explained in words reported by ‘AS’.
