Alonso does again: his talent in creating a ‘old dog’ to achieve “something unable to think” for his Aston Martin in Austria

Fernando Alonso Warned before Austrian Grand Prix of F1 2025 That was him Red bull ring I have “suffer“Because track properties should not be fixed in his vehicle. And after another great classification where he had to fight in a poor car to vote, he suffered all kinds of curves, the asturian pilot, from the 11th place on the grill, did not ruin the points, but he was pessimistic. One day later, he ruled “unable to imagine”As Asturian himself said, a few hours before. He did this again thanks to another master class of knowing how to read the race and take advantage of any circumstances to maximize its potential and the final result. Sublime.

Asturian exploited the abandonment of Antonelli and Verstappen To win two positions. And also one of his rivals, left alone, Alebon. But his career will still be complicated by a car that is one of the worst at the speed of the climax. In a circuit with three essential lines and three areas of DRS, I can suffer. In this we should add the destruction of an Aston Martin that in addition I have a quick curve and survival subviring on the slow curve. He left the lions at all. But he went over the challenge.

To do this, he had to choose a approach other than the majority: at a stop, both of them and his team were fully executed. And above all, he understood from the beginning of the race that, despite the existence Liam Lawson shot, I shouldn’t have to advance it. Alonso said on Thursday that “sometimes it is better not to win a battle to win the war.” That’s what he did this week. Old dog, he knows how to read that his success is based on not moving to a rival.

From the beginning, he stopped Liam Lawson, knowing that RB had a better rhythm than his Aston Martin, he knew he should try to stay after the neozyre, what happened to his Drs would happen. That gave him a few tenths in three areas of DRS, rebuilt from the Bulls racing pilot, and defended him from those who came behind. But the challenge is difficult: to achieve this I have to tighten everything to the curves, to always reach the line for less than a second. So, I turned around. In that sense, Fernando came to ‘Dazn’ that going to Lawson gave him a rhythm of half a second better than the one who actually had his car.

“As when you went a bicycle in the group and you put the last one”

“I don’t want to go to Liam at any time. I made a career like a bicycle counter. I just had to behind, in Rueda, benefit from three lines with the DRs, and then, the four curves in the middle, were thrown as if Chrono would take the first Drs again, and I took the second, and this one in third. This is just my choice. I think it was like a second half slower and if I stayed there hanging with him on each lap he got half a second, and half a second, and another half of the second. They even asked me: ‘When did we stop?’ And I said: ‘When he stops (Lawson)’. Because if you left me I just didn’t have this rhythm. Today we are Lawson’s extension, and thanks to his rhythm we ended the points, “he said to ‘Dazn’.

“It’s hard. Throughout the race we don’t have a rhythm. It’s like when you get out of the bike with a group and you put the last one and don’t give the relay to anyone and you make 100 km in the rear. That’s what I did to Lawson because I didn’t have the strength to go ahead or the possibilities to move forward. The seventh is unimaginable here in Austria because how the weekend lost, so there are 6 points to know well ”He added to ‘ESPN’.

BORTOTOto FINAL AGAIN

At the end of the career, Fernando Alonso could lose the 7th place before his representation agency, Gabriel Bortoleto, rolled behind him with 17 younger laps, with greater rhythm. Asturian needs to light his defense skills and help Norris at the end. The English was folded both in the final turn and the blue flags so that the two were passed, they gave oxygen to Ovetense to confirm the 7th place.

“Thanks to Norris, because I thought I couldn’t defend me from the Bortoleto, because I was stronger. And Norris, blue flag for Borttoleto and Blue Flag for me and ended the career. So without this blue flag it would have been impossible. I’m glad for her (Gabriel). He made an incredible weekend until now and eventually, then Hülkenberg added points on Sunday. And so you removed some shoulder pressure and you would enjoy a little more in the next career, “says Sauber’s’ rookie ‘on’ Dazn ‘in’ Dazn ‘Rookie’, a team that Alonso wants to stand for the big step he has given to the improvements of the last career.

“Sauber is taking giant steps. Hüleknberg has come out late And from now on, this is the first of many points for Gabriel, “he said to ‘Fox Argentina’.

“His points are appropriate and hopefully open a good stripes with points and continue to grow on F1,” added a happy Alonso to achieve a better result with the expectation of a track that should not be good for his car.
