F1 | Alonso apunta hacia arriba
Alonso está satisfecho con el arranque de temporada del Alpine. Dobles puntos en Bahréin con el asturiano en Q3, y doble Q3 en Arabia Saudí con el quinto de Ocon y el séptimo de Fernando. “En Bahréin yo estaba en Q3, eso estaba bien, pero ahora vamos a un circuito más bueno y estamos todavía mejor.
