Fernando Alonso is one of the four pilots of the starting grid 2025 which have not yet scored points this season. And the double Spanish world champion announces that we will not often see his Aston Martin in the top 10.
Fernando Alonso finished an anonymous 15th place Sunday evening in Bahrain. At the microphone of Canal+, the Aston Martin pilot recognizes that it will be difficult for him to score points this year. Unless racing circumstances help him integrate the top 10:
“He’s going to be Difficult to score points this year. I repeated it several times. We are lucky to already have 10 points But I’m afraid it is not enough. We need special circumstances to register points this season. “
Apart from an unexpected 5th place of Stroll lance at Australia GP in mid-March, Aston Martin frankly. This could push Fernando Alonso to make a radical decision in a few weeks.
Rumors have reported since Sunday evening ofA break from the double Spanish world champion after the Grand Prix of Émilie-Romagne in mid-May. If the car performance does not change, Fernando Alonso could simply stop his season in order to Prepare for the best 2026. To continue piloting, it is not necessary to exclude a passage through the discipline of endurance since Aston Martin is also present and that Fernando Alonso has a winning experience in the discipline with Toyota.
Aston Martin put everything on 2026
Because it is the 2026 season with its change of regulation that Aston Martin aims to shine in Formula 1. The British stable counts on its Spanish pilot of course but also and above all on Adrian Newey. The legendary Formula 1 designer already works on the 2026 car. The stable will also be able to rely on a new engine manufacturer, Honda, and a substantial recruitment for a few months.
Who to replace Fernando Alonso in the event of a withdrawal for the rest of the 2025 season?
There is no doubt that the contenders would be numerous in the event of withdrawal from Fernando Alonso in May. We first think of the reserve pilot Felipe Company. Since the car is not efficient and that winning points is improbable, at least regular, this would allow the Brazilian pilot to acquire a precious experience. We also think of old Formula 1 figures: Sergio Perez et Daniel Ricciardo. But will they accept to return to a car that is not able to play the leading roles while the Cadillac project is going up?
