Alonso has more clarity on his future, both short and long term
“I have a rope for a while”He said Fernando Alonsoa pilot who believes he will live for the pilot, live for the pilot, and never stop doing it. “I like to ride competitively, so I always race.”, he recently said in an interview with ‘DAZN F1’. Already a thousand times he has repeated that he races all the time and would drive every day if it was up to him. He demonstrated it at the beginning of his vacation by doing multiple karting his rounds at his circuit his museum in Oviedo. Or compete in some karting endurance races on free weekends for several years. At 41, it’s clear Fernando still has a long way to go when it comes to the highest levels of motorsport. On the first day of summer vacation, he surprised everyone by announcing his contract with the project Aston his Martin. “More ambitious than Alpine” And he found “more signs of affection and trust.”His next chapter in a pageant he’s not going to leave “At least two or three years.” And you have more tasks than already defined: “The Dakar”.
This was mentioned a few days ago on “DAZN F1”. The Spaniard was captivated by the nature of the world’s toughest race in 2020 and after just seven months of preparation, he made his debut in Saudi Arabia with Toyota. Never in a Dakar car or in dunes, he used a Hilux to drive through the Saudi Arabian desert, battling for stage wins and surprising everyone with speed. . A fall early in the marathon put him out of the top ranks, but when he reached the finish line, he was overjoyed. And at the end of Dakar 2020, he said a powerful phrase: “I’ll be back, but next time I’ll try to win.”
Now, after his goals in F1, he has repeatedly said he will be able to challenge the Dakar, taking Carlos Sainz, 60, as an example that age is just a number. “I have a very clear example and inspiration for Carlos Sainz Sr., who is still at the bottom of the Canyon and winning the Dakar Rally.”He said on “DAZN”.
“I know I can stay sane for a while, but I hope to be in Formula 1 for a few more years and I think it’s 100%. The secret is to try Dakar again. that is”, He noted, praising his desire to stay competitive in the long run rather than take the step into team management. I can’t say that, because there are many turns in life, and when I stop running, it’s going to cost me when I come to another function, so I try to dedicate myself to other things.”
