Red Bull stalwart Paul Monaghan believes Fernando Alonso would have no problem winning a title again in F1 provided that he had a capable car at his disposal.
Fernando Alonso has had a drought without a win since 2013, but he showed promise in 2023 with Aston Martin by securing six podiums in the first eight races. However, Aston Martin’s decline in 2024 prevented Alonso from reaching the podium that season. Alonso is hopeful that the team can improve with the 2026 regulation change. His former race engineer, Monaghan, believes Alonso is capable of competing at the top and won’t falter under pressure. The investment and technical improvements at Aston Martin could see Alonso challenging Red Bull’s Verstappen in the future, which would be a thrilling competition according to Monaghan.
