@rodejong.bsky.social1️⃣2️⃣THE DREAM STALLED
After 2023, #AstonMartin began to lose ground.
2024 and 2025 became increasingly difficult. The car only got worse, and they ended up with a major overhaul, but something much bigger was beginning to take shape behind the scenes.
#FernandoAlonso kept faith!
@rodejong.bsky.social8️⃣ THREE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS THAT SLIP AWAY
💔2010: #FernandoAlonso arrived in #AbuDhabi as the leader but lost the title in the last race.
💔2012: He again took the fight to the final race, with a #Ferrari far from being the dominant car.
In 2013, he won in #Barcelona. His last #F1 victory.
8/8
@rodejong.bsky.social6️⃣ 2007. McLAREN. HAMILTON. AND CHAOS.
#FernandoAlonso arrived as a two-time champion and found himself with a rookie teammate named #LewisHamilton
He won races, but internal tensions arose, incl. the #SpyGate scandal…
And they ended up TIED ON POINTS
#KimiRäikkönen was champion by just one point
@rodejong.bsky.social4️⃣ AND IT ALL STARTED AT RENAULT
2003: first pole in #Malaysia
That same year he won in #Hungary and became the youngest driver in history to win an #F1 GP at that time
#FernandoAlonso was already one of the great stars on the grid.
@rodejong.bsky.social2️⃣ IT ALL STARTED IN OVIEDO.
His father, José Luis, introduced him to karting
🏆 First victory at just 7 years old
🌍 At 15, he was already the world karting champion
The talent was there long before Formula 1 came along
@rodejong.bsky.social🧵 The story of Fernando Alonso in Formula 1, IN IMAGES
From a boy from Oviedo who started in karting to two-time world champion, Ferrari, Le Mans, a retirement, a comeback, and a career that still continues...

How many do you know ?

@rodejong.bsky.social#AdrianNewey, one of the BIGGEST REASONS why #FernandoAlonso decided to stay in #F1
🗣️ "Adrian was probably who influenced him the most. This year we didn't start well, but things are moving in the right direction and he is capable of CHANGING THINGS VERY QUICKLY"
📰 @BBCSport

@rodejong.bsky.socialIf #FernandoAlonso hadn’t retired from F1 for the 2019 and 2020 seasons, he could have had 478 GP starts to his name by now!
#LewisHamilton is getting closer to the 400-race milestone, while #MaxVerstappen is already sixth on the list with 248 starts.
@rodejong.bsky.socialThe most GP starts by active #F1 drivers, combined with their best grid positions and race results.
The top two, #FernandoAlonso and #LewisHamilton, also lead the all-time list, with #KimiRäikkönen third with 349 GP starts.
@rodejong.bsky.socialIf #FernandoAlonso continues like this each year, he could become the first driver to race against 3 generation drivers with Jos, Max and Lily Verstappen.
