Fernando Alonso‘s capabilities are known to most individuals in the world of motorsport. With over 20 years of racing experience, the Spaniard is known to perform exuberantly well under tricky conditions. However, this was not the case in this year’s Brazilian GP.
Alonso complained of a number of issues within the AMR24 during the 69-lap race. The 43-year-old driver said that the brake balance within the rear tires was a nightmare for him during the race.
I think Lance had the brake problem in the formation lap, and I had the brake issue after all the restarts, where all the brake balance goes completely rearwards. It was like braking with a hand brake. So all in all it was a nightmare out there. We need to get better for the next three.
