Aston Martin expõe táticas inteligentes de rádio de Fernando Alonso para manter concorrentes alerta.

Fernando Alonso surprised his competitors during the Saudi Arabia GP by requesting an alternative plan from the Aston Martin pitwall. The two-time world champion exceeded expectations and secured a position on the second row of the race. Despite being chased by Mercedes, Alonso managed to distance himself from them. Aston Martin team boss, Mike Krack, praised the strategic use of the team radio by the 42-year-old driver.

The Saudi Arabia GP seemed to be a straightforward race in terms of strategy, with most drivers making only one pit stop. However, in the middle of the race, Fernando Alonso approached the Aston Martin pitwall and asked for a “Plan B”. It was later revealed by Mike Krack that the team actually did not have an alternative plan. Alonso was simply trying to confuse any rival who might be listening to the team radio. With his vast experience in Formula 1, the Spanish driver is no stranger to this kind of mind game.

Krack described Alonso as a cunning and experienced competitor. The 42-year-old driver has a talent for keeping his team and rivals on their toes. Even when the team discovered Alonso’s intentions, he managed to confuse the entire pitwall with his “Plan B” strategy. Russell, who was right behind Alonso, was within the DRS zone. Krack explained that Alonso needed to assess how to reach the end of the race while maintaining a sufficient advantage over the pursuing Mercedes.

The Aston Martin team boss emphasized that Alonso surpassed Russell, and only someone like him could achieve such a feat. Krack was amazed by the difference Alonso created compared to the Mercedes driver. The 42-year-old driver adopted a smart approach in his battle against George Russell. Although Alonso achieved a respectable result for Aston Martin in Jeddah, the team may face challenges competing against McLaren in future races. Therefore, significant upgrades throughout the season will be crucial for Alonso’s team.
