This Thursday on Media Day Fernando Alonso in Miami caught the attention of special envoys to Miami GP the bandage with kinesiological tape in which the two-time world champion appeared on his left wrist to address the media. Dressed in the team’s short-sleeved polo shirt revealed the bandage.

This Thursday, the Asturian admitted to the media in Miami that “it’s a small injury, it happens sometimes. There have been ups and downs in my wrist and my hands since 2022, after the accident in Australia. It hurts more for a moment, but everything is fine”, he calmed the journalists and attributed it to the fact that “I’ve been driving a lot in recent weeks”.
Therefore it is a chronic soft tissue injury that has been happening since the 2022 accident in Q3 of the Australian Grand Prix and although the blow as a result of a mechanical breakdown in his Alpine is not very strong, the gesture of not letting the the midfielder’s driver’s hand resulted in him breaking several bones in both hands, an ailment that remained silent and unexplained until a year later when he was no longer with the team.
“Yes, I broke some bones in both hands last year in Australia. I didn’t fully recover until August and I was in a bit of pain, but we love driving,” the man from Oviedo then revealed.
At the end of the stage, Alpine had kinesiological tape on both wrists for several months.
