In the early days of January, Fernando Alonso visited the Aston Martin F1 base at Silverstone, began working with the engineers, including undergoing a seat fitting. Judging by the comments of Tom McCullough, who is responsible for car efficiency in the team, communication with the two-time world champion put everyone in a very positive mood.
“I still need to get to know Fernando better, but one thing I can already say: he is extremely motivated, he has a fighting spirit,” said the British engineer. “I noticed this as soon as I started talking to him. He is fully focused on achieving high results and believes that together with our team he will achieve success in the future.
Fernando understands the complexity of the tasks ahead. We are very happy that he has joined our team as he will push us to make progress in all areas. He won’t like it if we fight for positions in the middle of the pack.
He wants to take the next step with us, because we want to challenge the top three teams. I believe that Fernando will make a great contribution to the common cause, that is very real. I have no doubt that he will be happy if next year we manage to catch up with the leaders and fight with them.
