Fernando Alonso will continue to be a pilot Aston Martin in Formula 1 at least until 2026. The Asturian and the team announced this Thursday, April 11 at 6:00 pm, making a unique nod to Michael Jordan through his statement. “I’m here to stay”said the pilot in the news preview shared by the British manufacturer. “I’m here to stay”.
This is an adapted version of the myth “I’m back” of Jordan in 1995, when he decided to return to the NBA after his first retirement after his third ring in 1993. “I’m back”. That mythical fax, far before the age of the Internet, social networks and instant communication, unleashed a frenzy in the United States and the sports world in general.
Aston Martin and the driver have now decided to make this significant gesture after months of rumors pointing to a possible departure for the Spaniard to Mercedes or Red Bull. It’s not lost on anyone that Jordan is the star almost every day in gatherings about GOAT (English acronym for the best of all time) of basketball and sports in general, a discussion in which many F1 followers would also place Fernando Alonso in the motor discipline.
