Stroll told Reuters that he hopes to see “two cars on the podium”, adding: “I’m extremely confident. I believe the car will be very strong around the Montreal circui𝔍t, it suits our car well…so I’m really looking forward to going home and really looking forward to a great race.”

Although he did not completely rule i🔜t out, two-time world champion Alonso admitted such a feat will be a big ask given Red Bull’s dominance so far this year. 

“You never know, b𝔉ut it is an aggressive target for the weekend,” the Spaniard said. 

“But we know Lawre🐻nce. His ambition is super high always and we will try to make him happy ꦺand proud in the home grand prix.”

After a disappointing Spanish Grand Prix, Alonso 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:vowed that Aston Martin would “crﷺush” Merced♎es with a significant upgrade set to debut 🔯on the AMR23 this weekend. 

On Aston Martin’s prospects,📖 Alonso continued: “I think it ▨should be a good weekend but you never know until you hit the track. We also had expectations in Barcelona and we didn’t perform in that race. Let’s see. 

“We have a couple of new parts on the car as 🅷well at this race. Depending on the weather, we will try to test them and validate them and hopefully can be a little bit more competitive than Barcelona.

“[Here you] need to have obvi𝔉ously confidence in the car. It’s a semi-street circuit, you get very close to the walls, you need to ride the 𒆙kerbs as well. It’s a very bumpy circuit. 

“Weather normally plays a big factor here as it🐻 will do again this weekend. Experience always helps – this is the 17th or 18th Canadian Grand Prix [for me] so that always helps.”
