Poor Fernando Alonso performances are rare in F1. But his admission that the Emilia Romagna GP was one of them spells bad news for Aston Martin – not because it should suddenly be expecting a decline, but because it’s in keeping with concerning previous patterns
Fernando Alonso’s recent performance in the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, where he finished 19th due to various issues and mistakes, raised concerns for Aston Martin. While such instances are rare for Alonso, he has shown a tendency to become belligerent behind the wheel in futile battles. This behavior is not a sign of giving up but rather a frustration with the car’s performance at times. Alonso acknowledges his lackluster performances in Miami and Imola, attributing them to a quest for solutions rather than optimal driving. Aston Martin’s struggles mirror patterns from last season, with upgrades failing to yield expected improvements. It’s crucial for the team to strike a balance between pushing for points and addressing technical problems to achieve better results in the long term.
