Fernando Alonso has been in sensational form during the ongoing F1 campaign, and ahead of the upcoming British Grand Prix, he has revealed a special helmet design for the race. The Grand Prix at Silverstone is Aston Martin’s home race, and it is because of this reason that the Spaniard will be supporting a new design for the event.
Fernando Alonso joined the Aston Martin F1 team ahead of this year’s campaign, and his move has proved to be a masterstroke. He has been able to extract the full potential of AMR 23, which has boded well for both parties. As things stand, Alonso is currently third in the Drivers Championship with 131 points to his name.
Moreover, with his recent helmet reveal, he has once again caught the attention of Formula 1 fans all over over the world. The helmet is donned in green and has got a few white spots that are very well supporting the whole helmet design. The fans of the sport have also taken the time to share their reactions regarding the special helmet.
Fans’ reactions to Fernando Alonso’s special helmet
Looking at the reactions of the fans, it is quite evident that they are in awe of the aesthetically pleasing design of Fernando Alonso’s helmet. Several fans have appreciated the beauty of it, and his helmet is sure to catch the keen eyes of the fans during the whole three-day Silverstone weekend as well.
Fernando Alonso will target a podium finish at the British GP
While Fernando Alonso will be racing with a special helmet at the British Grand Prix, his focus will be on scoring at least a podium finish in front of the die-hard fans of the sport. He missed out on a podium at the Red Bull ring and would look to make things right at the Silverstone Formula1 Circuit.
Moreover, finishing as high as possible is also crucial for him to put some pressure on Sergio Perez. The Mexican is second in the Drivers Championship and has had a mixed season in his mighty RB19. As things stand, Alonso is only 17 points behind the 33-year-old going into Silverstone.
Taking everything into account that has been discussed above, the British Grand Prix is a crucial event for Aston Martin and Fernando Alonso. He put on a solid show last year at the venue, and several eyes will be on his exploits again during the three-day F1 extravaganza.
