Goals set by Alonso with Hamilton in Singapore
Fernando Alonso In the end, he didn’t have enough cars to fight for everything SingaporeEven though, in theory, the circuit should have been a perfect fit for green cars.amazing ferrariand Carlos Sainz He took pole position, with Leclerc third, but here he outperformed Leclerc’s car. silverstonebut he also did it in one turn mercedes of russell (2nd) and hamilton (Fifth), mclaren of norris (4th) and hearth of Magnussen (6th place) We need to dilute that in the race. Aston Martin and Alonso’s race pace was one of the best in Friday’s long-run simulation, so we expect it to be very good. However, it is a course where overtaking is very difficult, so aiming for a podium from 7th place seems like an impossible mission. that’s why, fernando He focused on thinking more realistically and objectively about the Drivers’ World Championship as a whole. He hopes to battle for third place in the world championship with Hamilton, who is just six points behind Alonso.
If the race were to end as it is, Hamilton would earn 10 points, with Alonso in 7th place in 6th place, leaving him with just 2 points behind Fernando. For this reason, the man from Oviedo prioritized fighting the British.
“We’re doing well this year and we have Hamilton right in front of us on the grid. He’s right behind us in the championship. That’s my priority goal: cover Hamilton or stay in front of him. Or else I’ll finish.” “If you’re behind, you don’t lose many points (regarding Hamilton),” the Oviedo native said.
He could do no more and told the engineer:
“I guess I took out a little more than what was in the car (lol)” Because the truth is we are suffering today. I wasn’t comfortable in Free Practice 3, so I made some changes to the car for qualifying and everything improved. But I’m very happy to be back. I just met an engineer and I said, “If you leave me here all night, I don’t think I’ll ever do it again.” We have to accept that we are in the current position (7th place) and that we are not as strong as the other teams, but we hope to return. I’m very happy with it and I’m looking forward to starting tomorrow and seeing what we can get. ”
Aston Martin won’t be there on Red Bull match day
“Red Bull looks like they’re going to be limping this weekend, but they’ve been behind them all year and we can’t seem to fish. A failed race won’t get us there.” to take advantage of that. . As I’ve said many times, you have to be there. As it happens, I won’t be here this weekend. But this is like the Tour de France, he has 22 races instead of just one.
