The market transition Formula 1 begins to enter the boiling process. Pilots without contracts are starting to eliminate options and want to clarify which project is best for them from 2025. This is the case of Fernando Alonso.
After the Japanese GP, the Asturian was asked again about his future plans and specifically the option to switch Lewis Hamilton in Mercedes. He did not give any details for a few weeks but in this case it is clear: ending Brackley’s team is not an option: Mercedes? They don’t seem like an attractive option, they’re behind us,” he said for SkySportsF1.
So the performance of the silver arrows, which is mainly the fourth team on the grid, is not really convincing and the Spaniard does not see that the projection is enough for it to be a more promising project than at Aston’s. Martin.
If we look at the classification, Fernando is right. Hamilton had the worst start to the season since his debut in Formula 1 since 2007 with only eight points in four races. On the other hand, Russell has the same points as Alonso (24). If it weren’t for the Australian sanction, the Spaniard would have been first.
The last victory was in Brazil in 2022 with Russell and they haven’t been on the podium since last year’s Abu Dhabi race also with the British.
It is also noteworthy that Fernando actively and passively repeated that, if he decides to continue in Formula 1, which has not been confirmed, the first team he will talk to is Aston Martin. We will have to wait to know their final decision.
