Fernando Alonso has been participating in Formula 1 since 2001. Dr. Helmut Marko, member of the Advisory Board of Team Red Bull, expressed admiration for the experienced F1 driver, praising his skills and long career in the sport. Alonso has been a highly capable driver on the track for the past 23 years and continues to excel in his role as a racing driver.
Helmut Marko discussed the possibility of Fernando Alonso joining Red Bull Racing during the early years of the team’s formation, when Alonso was at the peak of his career. The Spanish driver won two driver championships and has regained his form since the 2023 season.
Marko also revealed that Alonso had reservations about joining Red Bull due to doubts about the team’s capabilities. Despite Red Bull’s success and reputation as a leading team since the 2021 season, the 42-year-old driver criticized their ability to build a championship-winning car in the past and therefore chose not to join the team.
Yuki Tsunoda, a Red Bull team driver, expressed his desire to race for Red Bull next season, as his current contract expires at the end of this year. Tsunoda has shown promise and hopes to be promoted to the prestigious Austrian team.
Red Bull once again demonstrated its strong performance this season, with the RB20 car being one of the fastest on the track. Tsunoda expressed his interest in racing for top-level teams, sharing the dream of winning a driver’s championship. However, Sergio Perez has also shown potential this season and there are rumors that he is being offered a new contract with Red Bull.
Yuki Tsunoda now has the opportunity to prove himself and give his best to secure a place in one of the main teams in the coming years. The next race on the F1 calendar is the Monaco Grand Prix, which will provide the RB driver with another chance to show his skills.
