Last week Fernando Alonso started working with Aston Martin after a day of testing in Abu Dhabi. British team principal Mike Krak said the two-time Formula 1 world champion impressed him with his hard work and focus on results.
Mike Krak: Fernando’s feedback performance is very impressive. He always spoke to the point, but at the same time very friendly, open and transparent.
I still remember how disappointed Fernando was when he retired this year in Mexico City due to a breakdown and couldn’t finish seventh. This is a good example of motivation and commitment. When there is someone on the team with such passion and desire to win, it has a positive impact on the whole team.
Last Tuesday everyone at Aston Martin was very happy that Fernando was behind the wheel of our car. I believe that with his spark he was able to ignite the passion and desire to win in the entire team.
Fernando is different from Sebastian Vettel because they each have a different story. One is Spanish, the other German, and that alone is enough for big differences, but they also have one thing in common: a focus on improvement. Both Sebastian and Fernando allow the team to move forward, not stand still.”
