Fernando Alonso Thrilled to Bid Farewell to Aston Martin’s Struggling F1 Car as New Era Approaches

Fernando Alonso Eager to Bid Farewell to Aston Martin’s Underperforming Car

In a dramatic turn of events in the world of Formula 1, two-time world champion Fernando Alonso is ready to close the chapter on what has been a challenging season with Aston Martin. As the team languishes in a disheartening eighth place in the Constructors’ Championship, trailing behind rivals like Haas and Racing Bulls, the veteran driver is setting his sights on a fresh start with the team for the 2025 season.

This year has been a brutal battlefield for Alonso, who has managed to accumulate only 40 points over 22 Grands Prix, without a single podium finish to show for his efforts. Despite consistently outperforming teammate Lance Stroll in qualifying sessions, Alonso’s experiences behind the wheel have been far from triumphant. The British team is desperately seeking to reverse its fortunes, looking towards the new regulations set to take effect in 2026 and the hiring of renowned designer Adrian Newey. However, they have openly acknowledged that their aspirations for a championship challenge might have to be postponed until at least 2027.

As the season draws to a close, Alonso is viewing the final two races as a symbolic farewell to a difficult era. “The remaining two races will serve to close out 2025, which has been an incredibly tough year. We will strive to perform our best, but naturally, we are already thinking ahead to 2026,” Alonso stated after the Las Vegas Grand Prix. He sees these closing races not just as a grind, but as a celebration: “I view these two races as festive occasions. Qatar, with its sprint format, offers little time for a breather, and Abu Dhabi usually serves as a farewell for everyone, a small respite. For me, these will be celebratory events, especially since we will no longer be driving this car, which in itself is a reason to celebrate.”

The uncertainty surrounding Alonso’s future in F1 looms large. His current contract is set to expire at the end of next season, and while he is contemplating extending his stay, the decision hinges on Aston Martin’s competitive prospects. Should the team fail to deliver the performance he craves, Alonso may seek new opportunities, with his wealth of experience and longevity in the sport playing crucial roles in his decision-making process.

It’s hard to believe that Alonso hasn’t tasted victory since 2013, and his last championship title dates back to 2006. The burning question remains: will the technical investments and strategic shifts enable him to reclaim his former glory and, perhaps, chase a coveted third world title? One thing is for certain: Alonso’s motivation is unwavering, and as he prepares to leave behind the disappointments of the current car, the anticipation for what lies ahead is palpable.
