Despite Fernando Alonso’s long and extensive career in his world motor sports it was only 2021 when he competed in the Circuit Zandvoort for the first time. The Spanish driver had never raced at the Dutch circuit, neither in Formula 1 nor in the lower categories, which was no excuse for not scoring a great result.

In the Dutch Grand Prix from last year, the Asturians corrected a somewhat disappointing ranking by finishing ninth with a flawless Sunday. Alonso gained two places in the first round, where it remained until the stops. Everything pointed to a more than deserved seventh place finish, but on the last lap he managed to pass Carlos Sainz for sixth place.

An unbeatable finish that made it clear he still had the speed of the past.

2022 was far from easy as he found movement in qualifying and was eliminated in Q2, starting 13th. However, the best was yet to come, because on Sunday Alpine prepared a perfect strategy for him that allowed him to move up several positions. Alonso saw the checkered flag in 7th place but a penalty in front of him moved him up to 6th.

Three Formula 1 teams filed a lawsuit due to the possible technical advantage of Mercedes and Red Bull

The Ferrari, Audi and Aston Martin teams have filed a joint lawsuit with the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) over the advantage that Mercedes and Red Bull may have in the 2026 season under the new technical regulations, The Race reports.

In 2026, Formula 1 will switch to new technical regulations, which provide for a reduction in the fuel compression ratio in power plants from 18:1 to 16:1. This indicator will be monitored off the track.

According to the source, Mercedes and Red Bull have found a way to pass the tests while maintaining the actual race compression ratio at 18:1. This could give teams an advantage of 0.3-0.4 seconds per lap.

— The regulations clearly define the maximum compression ratio and the method for measuring it, based on static conditions at ambient temperature. This procedure remains unchanged despite the reduction in the permissible compression ratio for 2026, the FIA ​​said in a statement.

The FIA ​​does not intend to change the regulations at least until the tests are carried out. Teams are allowed to update their power unit designs every six races of the season.
