F1 News: Fernando Alonso says Aston Martin owner Lawrence Stroll’s desire for a double podium at the Canadian GP is rather impossible to achieve.

This weekend’s Canadian GP is a special race for Aston Martin. That’s because one of their riders, Lance Stroll, and his father, team owner Lawrence, hail from the land of ice.

Lawrence, who was so confident, asked Fernando Alonso and Lance to present the podium there.

“I’m very confident. I’m sure this car will be very strong on the Montreal circuit, it suits our car very well, so I’m really looking forward to getting home and I’m really looking forward to having a great race,” he said. said.

Alonso then responded to his boss’ request. He considered the double podium to be rather difficult to achieve in Montreal, considering that the dominance of Red Bull Racing is still difficult to match.

“You never know, but it was an aggressive goal for the weekend,” said the Spaniard.

“But we know Lawrence. His ambitions have always been very high and we will try to make him happy and proud during his home Grand Prix.”

After a disappointing Spanish Grand Prix, Fernando Alonso is determined to beat Mercedes with his all-new AMR23 upgrade.

“I think it will be a good weekend, but you never know until you are on the track. We also had expectations in Barcelona and we didn’t perform well in this race. Let’s see,” said the two-time F1 world champion.

“We also have new parts on the car in this race. Depending on the weather, we’ll try to test it and validate it and hopefully be a bit more competitive than Barcelona.”

“(Here you) have to have clear confidence in the car. It’s a semi-street circuit, you’re so close to the wall, you have to go over the kerbs too. It’s a very bumpy circuit. The weather usually plays a big part here, as it will again this weekend Experience always helps – it’s the 17th or 18th Canadian Grand Prix [untuk saya] so that always helps,” Alonso concluded.
