In the latest news, Fernando Alonso has signed a new contract with Aston Martin, just when it seemed more attractive options were available. Now Honda has subtly indicated that this was no coincidence.
In addition to his ruthlessness, perseverance and talent, Alonso is also famous for his bad decisions, who knows, maybe he will get lucky this time.
“Our clear goal is to win a world championship. Our time will come in 2026, and although we know it will be very difficult, we have already taken on this challenge with another team not so long ago. Now we have set the same goal with Aston Martin, and Lawrence Stroll and Toshihiro Mibe are both committed to the team fighting for the world title in 2026. Of course, in reality it is not that simple and the project will only come together slowly, but I have no doubt that it will work. We will build ourselves together. From Aston Martin's point of view, what is expected of us, and vice versa. It will be a sincere relationship, so that together we can reach the level of a top-class team.” - wrote the president of Honda Racing Corporation, Koji Watanabe, describing the long-term plans.
Can Fernando Alonso finally get his third?
