Fernando Alonso will continue to race in Formula 1 with Aston Martin next season after the team announced that the two-time world champion has signed a fresh deal to keep him onboard into 2026 and the sport’s next regulatory cycle.
@GoodEye8 can’t see it happening, not with Perez’s form right now. He’s exactly what they want. RBR don’t want a 1b driver in that second car. They just need someone who can consistently come second and support Verstappen. He’s got his flaws, and 2023 wasn’t a banner year for him, but Verstappen was in a class of his own and didn’t really need the support with how dominant the car was, and he still came second in the championship. He’s the best #2 driver RBR has had since Webber.
