Alonso agrees to the words of Martin Brundle as if it wasn’t for that, he still wouldn’t be here.  I’m not here to travel around the world. You’re here because you trust [in your abilities] and you have your self-confidence and belief you can do well and drive well. “ he explained.

He has had an amazing track record with two World championship title to his name, Alonso has battled with the greatest and has experienced it all and now is ready to help his team-mate, Esteban Ocon with a few tips and tricks of driving.

For the Spaniard, the year of 2022 began with some disappointment as he manged to finish only P9 at the season opener in Bahrain whereas in the Saudi Arabian GP at the Jeddah track, a handful of points were lost when he did not finish the race due to a failure in the power source. Alpine had hoped to connect with the absolute best teams this season as a factory team, but that is currently not the case.

Both the drivers are set to put forth an amazing show and bring back the lost points in the last race at the Australian GP.
