Fernando Alonso appeared before the media during this Thursday in the previous Bahrain Grand Prixthe fourth of Formula 1 2025 World Cup in a scenario in which the preseason tests were already run at the end of February. The Spanish pilot said that in Aston Martin They are focused on “bringing new pieces to each race we can”, discarding the circuit of Sakhir As a favorable for your team when it comes to operating the first improvements.
Everything indicates that the first major package will be destined to Miami either Imolatherefore, Bahrein does not seem the best option for Aston Martin to surprise with his greatest incorporation of updates in the AMR25. In this way, Alonso is forced to row again against wind and tide as he already did in the shadows of Suzuka To get to the eleventh position, an almost unattainable status today for green.
“We have learned things,” he said in reference to the first three races in Australia, China and Japan. «We know what the weak points are: fast curve, straight resistance and that everything is very tight. We have seen that in two tenths we can stay out of the q1 or sometimes fight to be seventh or sixth in Q3 if we had passed, ”said the Asturian.
«We realized that on Friday we were more competitive than Saturday and Sunday, we do not change the configuration much so the tail wind in the first sector did more damage than our competitors. That is our conclusion. It is not really new, we know that the car is fragile in terms of tail wind in some curves and Suzuka could be a confirmation, ”Alonso recalled in this regard on the weekend in Japan.
Alonso and the races like Suzuka’s
In addition, he made a criticism of the organization of the F1 when he was asked again in case the race in Suzuka seemed too boring: «You have to talk less to the media. There are too many press conferences since Thursday, amateur questions in the Fan Zone On Friday, a mandatory question after free training, then all the contents we do for the team ».
«You multiply that by 20 pilots and team leaders and I think we talk too much. Because the F1 has always been so, there have been great races at a stop. We are constantly looking for more overtaking, more stops, more equality … and there are other precious categories to see that. This is F1 and you have to love it as it is, ”he concluded, setting out the debate of the narrow circuits.
