Despite topping FP2, Fernando Alonso is not allowing thoughts of a possible BahrainGP pole to enter his mind. F1
The two-time champ bought into Aston Martin’s vision for future title challenges as he made the switch from Alpine, but such times were not expected to arrive instantly. However, could that be on the cards?
In conditions similar to those that will greet the drivers for qualifying and the race, Alonso was almost two-tenths clear of the Red Bull duo of Sergio Perez and Max Verstappen. Alonso went on to confirm that getting both cars into Q3 was what Aston Martin had decided would be a good achievement, but stressed that this is just the start of a process which he hopes will eventually result in title glory, eventually being the operative word.
“It’s very easy to make a mistake, it’s not the same fighting for P12, P14 than fighting for top five positions because the pressure is different, the adrenaline is different.
