Fernando Alonso would it be nostalgic? If the speech of the Spaniard when signing for Alpine F1 Team in 2021 suggested it, the decoration of his helmet for the coming season confirms his desire to relive happy days.

The double world champion will in fact use the same livery as during the victorious 2006 campaign with Renault F1 Team (7 victories, 6 poles, 14 podiums):

Fernando Alonso therefore retains the colors of the Spanish flag, the symbol of his native region Asturias with the yellow cross and its traditional logo, the arrows on the summit.

Passionate about the history of motorsport across all disciplines, I learned to read thanks to AUTOhebdo. At least that's what my parents tell everyone when they see my name inside!
