These days, we hear more and more about Max Verstappen's team change. Given Red Bull's difficulties, Fernando Alonso also has an opinion on the driver, who is increasingly being linked with Aston Martin.
The Spanish veteran might even fear for his position, but Alonso wouldn't be Alonso if he thought that way...
"I'm not worried about my place; I have an active contract until 2025. However, I see these rumors as a very encouraging sign, both for myself and for the team. The fact that the world champion is most frequently linked with us, along with Mercedes and Ferrari, shows the quality of the project we're working on and the future that lies ahead for Aston Martin.
I'll be on the track as long as I feel fast and competitive enough, and of course, as long as the team needs me. However, my commitment is long-term; I'll be here for many, many years to come, just perhaps in a different position. If that means we don't win the World Championship with me at the wheel, I'll still be very proud. And of course, if the opportunity arises, I'd be very happy to accept Max Verstappen as my teammate..." - philosophized the legend.
