Fernando Alonso’s seemingly sudden suspension failure at Monza was, in actuality, not all that sudden, according to Aston Martin.
Aston Martin has revealed the reason behind Fernando Alonso’s suspension failure at the Italian Grand Prix. Despite starting in eighth place and running in seventh during the race at Monza, contact with the kerb at the Ascari Chicane caused the suspension on his AMR25 to give way. The team clarified that it wasn’t a sudden failure but rather a result of gravel hitting his car in the first lap, compromising the suspension. Despite the setback, Alonso and Aston Martin aim to maintain their strong performance at the upcoming Azerbaijan Grand Prix. Currently sixth in the constructors’ standings, the team is focused on closing the 24-point gap to Williams with 30 of their 62 points coming from Alonso’s contributions this season.
