Alonso: Triple-headers, not driving, will drain my battery in F1
Fernando Alonso walked away from Formula 1 in 2018 due to media and commercial commitments and McLaren’s decline. During his break, he achieved success in endurance racing and returned to F1 with Alpine in 2021. Despite being 42 years old, he had a successful 2023 season with Aston Martin, which motivated him further. However, Alonso admits that F1’s demanding schedule, rather than age, could lead to his retirement again. The 2023 calendar, featuring a triple-header at the end of the season, will determine when his love for F1 diminishes rather than any decline in performance.
