The Asturian rider has made his intentions clear for the coming seasons
Since he returned in the year 2020, much has been said about the possible withdrawal of Fernando Alonso. Every time a season ends, the rumors about the goodbye of the Spanish driver resurface. That is why he has now wanted to be very clear when talking about his future plans. Some plans that for the moment do not go through abandoning the Alpine car, with which he will sign a new contract.
With the French team Fernando Alonso lives its third stage and now it is very close to renewing his contract. He will do it at the best moment of the season for him after two races, in Canada and the United Kingdom, in which he has been close to the podium. But beyond his career classification he stands out the performance that you are getting from a car that improves week after weekalthough it still has many limitations.
Fernando Alonso breaks records in Formula 1
Now, as we have been able to see in the Formula 1 profile on Twitter, we have learned that the two-time world champion has achieved a new record. Fernando Alonso has become the driver with the most kilometers traveled in the race in the history of Formula 1, surpassing other great legends such as Jenson Button, Michael Schumacher, Lewis Hamilton or Kimi Raikkonen.
In this way, Fernando Alonso has become the driver who has traveled the most kilometers in the history of Formula 1. To celebrate it, the Formula 1 account has published that the Asturian driver has driven the equivalent of 2,195 marathons, 2, 3 laps around the Earth or a quarter of the way to the Moon. Something that has generated an original comment from the pilot.
Fernando Alonso clears doubts about his retirement
After these data that Formula 1 has posted on Twitter, Fernando Alonso has responded. As he has commented, he is going to try to increase these numbers until they are equivalent to half the distance that separates the Moon from the Earth. Something that, obviously, is impossible, because for this the Asturian driver would have to spend another 20 years competing in Formula 1.
Be that as it may, it seems clear that Fernando Alonso’s plans do not go through retiring soon and that, at least, he has at least two more years left in the great circus. In this way, El Plan continues its course and has a rope for a while. A plan that is improving with the passing of the races, with which Alpine has been gaining in reliability, with Fernando Alonso being able to squeeze all the best out of the single-seater.
