He rhythm of Fernando Alonso and of Lance Stroll has been very below than expected and, despite the fact that the sensations were good in the run-up to the Grand Prix and that it seemed that they could fight for the first places, in the end it was not like that and they rolled in the latest positions.
Therefore, the frustration In the Asturian driver it has been more than evident, as well as his bad luck . And the thing is that the man from Oviedo passed over the debris derived from accident between ‘Checo’ Pérez and Charles Leclerc something that limited largely his performance and that forced him to backing out .
For all this, after the accident of Magnussen Fernando proposed to his team to turn the race into tests to evaluate the performance of the car and to be able to obtain good data for the future, something that denotes the clear impotence Of the Aston Martin .
“I think that we should make an extra stop i guess. So maybe we learn something about another new tire, his life or something,” said the Spaniard. And he is right, because right now they are in the last positions in terms of performance and, if they do not do something to change it, next year it could be worse .
