Fernando Alonso warned earlier on Thursday that Aston Martin’s changes to the United States GP may not be as effective as its fans had hoped. In fact, every time the Silverstone team changes, the car gets worse. He was 18th in the race on Saturday and this Sunday he was disappointed again because he finished outside the points (13) in the main race. “More or less when they gave us the readings, that’s our real place,” thought the Asturian.
AMR24 is getting worse every weekend and the forecast gives 13º-14º and against this, no ‘miracles’ are appropriate. “I started well, but then I got stuck. In any case, it didn’t matter, in 57 laps you were able to stay in your place, as we expected, it’s not surprising if the eighth qualification was,” Fernando admitted.
“It has been a very difficult week, Saturday and Sunday, we did it slowly in Mexico, we have to raise the level in Mexico. We tell the teams what the car wants and then the team does what it can, but we found a big obstacle. All seasons and we are learning from it,” he said.
With a joke, Alonso laughed in the mix with the rookie Franco Colapinto, who surpassed him in the race: “Today there was no fight, he was second faster than us, Williams is the new middle McLaren. ” , Fernando let out a laugh from Argentina.
