“Time will give Alonso what he lacks, he deserves much more.”

“I always think that at the end of the day or at the end of any story “Everything will come, everything will balance out, and he deserves a lot more from the sport.” Pedro de la Rosa says this today, which marks 11 years since Fernando Alonso’s last Formula 1 victory, his 32nd.

“Not because of how much he put into it, because I think other drivers have put in that kind of effort and worked hard since they were kids.but because his passion, dedication and true talent deserve much more than two World Championships.” values ​​in conversation with veteran journalist Ian Parkes.

“That’s why I always tell myself that time will give him what he’s missing now,” insists the former driver and now Aston Martin teammate and ambassador. “The moment you start to think there is injustice, it is not good for any athlete. You have to believe that what you have is what you deserve, but Fernando essentially deserves more.”

“He’s an asset to any team and he’s great to work with because you always learn with a guy like him, even at my age.” closes Pedro, who then in 2013, May 13, was in a Ferrari with Alonso in this image with the Spanish flag, pointing to the Ferrari horse and the 95,000 spectators Montmelo face down on the steering wheel.

It was a great victory, based on a very inspired start like today’s. And he turned over the statistics, which showed that no one had ever won at Montmelo from third position, and Fernando was fifth.

In this magical Lotus he beat Vettel, who decided to stop three times, and Räikkönen, who decided to stop only once. Fernando stopped two and won, moving up to third, although not long after the FIA ​​changed their tire regulations and Ferrari was offside in Red Bull’s favour. It was the second victory of the season andhis third career on Spanish soil: a career in Valencia (European Grand Prix) in 2012, added to a career in Montmelo in 2006,

Yes, the same one in which little Sainz personally met his idol.

“I know that many of you have worked hard to come, and this victory belongs to you. Under the current circumstances, coming here is a big effort. I want to dedicate this victory to all of you and thank you in my name and on my behalf. on behalf of Ferrari.” – said an agitated Fernando in the midst of an economic crisis, and that he had to testify before the commissioners for stopping his car on a festive circle to wave the Spanish flag.. He cared little about this in 22 GG.PP. On the Catalan circuit, the Pole won 17 times: four times against those who started second, and only once against those who started third. And his appearance in fifth knocked everything down.

Then came 2014 with the change in the rules to hybrid engines and Fernando’s belief that Ferrari would never be able to beat Mercedes, which is exactly what happened. His jump was a double somersault on the McLaren-Honda, which should have gone well but didn’t. Like what he did now with Aston Martin, an act of faith that this time everything went perfectly. And as for 33rd place, remaining between 6 Mercedes titles and seven more Red Bull titles,

who have been crushing the championship since 2010.
