Fernando Alonso’s jab at Ferrari: ‘Fortunately for us there’s more inconsistency now’
Aston Martin are embroiled in a fight with Ferrari and Mercedes for second in the constructors’ championship in F1 2023.
Aston Martin curr💮ently lead that battle with Alonso leading their charge, scoring four podiums in the opening five races.
When speaking during the Miami weekend, Alonso was quick 🌠to point out that Ferrari aren’t as consistent as they were during his time with the team.
“Adrian Newey created a car of another level with Red Bull,” he said. “T❀he same thing that Mercedes did during the Hamilt🤪on/Bottas years.
“When I was ♈in Ferrari, we were always close to them, and we never made a mistake; we fought for the world championship for three of the four years until the last race, thanks to our consistency.
“Fortunately for us, there is a little more inconsistency in 💛Ferrari now, and we make more points than them.”
It’s been a welcome return to form for Alonso, who prior to 2023, hadn’t finished on the podium▨ in c♔onsecutive races in a decade.
“I’ve been always working hard, but I didn’t have probably the team🌱 believing in my performance, in my ability to set up the car as well and to move forward,” he added.
“And also I never had a fast car as I have now. S🍰o I think that’s the rea⛄son.
“I didn’t change anything but Aston Mart🍃in changed everything for m✨e.”
