Fernando Alonso qualified second in Miami and is starting from the front row for the second time this season. The Aston Martin driver said that in qualifying the car was in perfect balance, so he might attack with full force.
Fernando Alonso: “Good qualification. The third workout turned out to be unsuccessful for us – we tried various settings, but they did not work. However, the team was able to make the car come alive in qualifying, so I’m very happy with the second place. Let’s see what we can do in the race.
The balance of the car is perfect – I enjoyed every lap. The car is a pleasure to drive, especially in fairly difficult slow corners. In the eleventh and sixteenth turns, you need to be confident in the car to drive close to the wall. In qualifying, the car allowed us to attack, which I am very happy regarding.
Throughout the weekend it was difficult due to the fact that the racing trajectory is very narrow, and outside of it the asphalt is very slippery. Let’s see what the weather will be like tomorrow and try to do our best.
I was always motivated, always worked hard, but I probably never had a team that believed in my ability to pick up the settings that would allow me to go forward. I have never had such a fast car as now. I think this is the reason for such results. I didn’t change anything in my approach, but Aston Martin changed everything regarding me.”
