Alonso says he now wants 'at least a second place' after scoring his fourth podium of the 2023 F1 season in the MiamiGP. 'Maybe Monaco, maybe Barcelona we have a possibility.'
Fernando Alonso, Aston Martin AMR23Alonso admitted he had expected a fiercer battle this weekend as Ferrari and Mercedes couldn't back up their recent improvements in Baku and Melbourne respectively.
"A little bit of a lonely race today and nothing really to do in front of us with the Red Bulls and behind us," he shrugged. "Maybe we did expect a little bit stronger opposition, but the Ferraris were a bit worse than expected today. So yeah, it's never easy, but it was a lonely race. "We take the podium and going into the triple-header of Imola, Monaco and Barcelona, at which hopefully we can keep on going."Alonso has now scored 15 points in every 2023 race weekend so far, missing the podium in Baku but adding to his tally there in 2023's first sprint race.
At 75 points, the Spaniard heads to the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix in two weeks' time with a 19-point advantage on Mercedes'
