Can anyone stop Verstappen and Red Bull this season? Alonso has suggested this will not be the case.
Fernando Alonso acknowledges that the other drivers on the F1 grid believe they may not be able to win the Drivers’ Championship due to Max Verstappen and Red Bull’s impressive performance during the Bahrain pre-season test. Verstappen is aiming for his fourth consecutive title after dominating last season. Red Bull has made significant changes to the RB19, introducing new innovations like the radical vertical sidepod inlets on the RB20 to maintain their dominance. Alonso admitted that predicting the competition is challenging and that the majority believe Red Bull will continue to dominate the sport. Despite the uncertainty surrounding the new season, Alonso recognizes the intense competitiveness of Formula 1 and the tough challenge it presents for all drivers. Given Red Bull’s strong performance last year, it seems like they are set to continue their dominance, leaving little room for other teams to clinch victories in the upcoming races.
