Fernando Alonso’s racecraft has become the stuff of legend.
The two-time Formula 1® World Champion burst onto the world stage as the young charger who toppled Ferrari's reign and ended Michael Schumacher's championship streak.
Alonso’s journey in Formula 1® started in Melbourne in 2001, almost a month to the day before Oscar Piastri was even born.
For more than two decades, Alonso has been a source of frustration, admiration and occasional panic. His feel for the car and racing is almost unparalleled in Formula 1® and rivals know that seeing the number 14 in their mirrors is rarely good news.
What makes Alonso unique is that as he enters the twilight of his Formula 1® career, he still approaches racing with the same intensity that first brought him to the grid. The speed remains, the racecraft remains, and the competitive fire burns as brightly as ever.
A winner at the highest levels of motorsport including, Fernando Alonso isn't simply enduring, he's still finding new ways to remind everyone why he's one of the sport's greatest competitors.
