According to Briatore, Alonso is ready to return to F1
Without the slightest stroke of Formula 1 took place in 2020, the transfer market has been on everyone's lips since the departure of Sebastian Vettel de Ferrari, replaced by Carlos Sainz Jr. The Spaniard being replaced by Daniel Ricciardo in McLaren, a seat is left vacant on the Renault side.
This did not fail to interest Fernando Alonso, which, as we explained to you last week, is holding advanced discussions with the French team. His historical mentor and former boss of Renault F1 Team, Flavio Briatore stepped into the breach this Monday, May 18.
The Italian reacted in the columns of the transalpine newspaper La Gazetta dello Sport; according to him, Fernando Alonso is ready to make his return to F1. “Fernando feels motivated. His year away from the paddock (two in reality, 2019 and 2020 at least. Editor's note) did him good. He detoxed (from F1) and I see him more serene and ready for the return. »
The double winner of 24 Hours of Le Mans with Toyota had left the Grands Prix at the end of the 2018 season after a disappointing reunion with McLaren (two best laps and a 10th best final place in four years).
