What we think
While giving all credit where it was due for the utter dominance displayed by the Red Bull RB19s as they sped to first and second places in Bahrain, one would have to have a heart of stone not to have been excited throughout by the emergence of Aston Martin as the current next-best team in F1 in their wake.
The marque’s history in the sport’s highest echelon has been patchy at best,and the least said about its ill-advised, out-of-time forays in 1959 and ’60, thebetter. Last year didn’t create a lot to write home about, either. But this year’sperformances, culminating thus far in a podium third this evening here in Sakhir, is proof that when you ultimately aspire to win you should never give up along the way.
One might say the same of the indefatigable Fernando Alonso. He’s made someless than wonderful career choices over the years which have probably cost
him titles, but at 41 the Spanish hero is driving at least as well as he did in his World Championship-winning seasons in 2005 and ’06 with Renault.
His battles here with George Russell, Lewis Hamilton and Carlos Sainz wereexciting, often breath-taking, and at all times clean and honourable, proof of just how majestic topliners can be when giving it their all at 200 mph.
Another season of complete Red Bull domination might not be too palatablefor people outside the Milton Keynes factory, but if this is what is going to behappening behind them, let’s sign up now to have plenty more of it.
Forza Fernando!
