Former Haas F1 boss Guenther Steiner has recognised a 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton-like change in 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fernando Alonso in recent years.

After a difficult return to McLaren between 2015 and 2018, A🥀lonso took two years out of the sport to compete ꧟in the World Endurance Championship.

Alonso won Le Mans twice, while winning 🧜the WEC title with Toyota.

The Spaniard had fallen out of love with F1 amid a winless run (that is s𝓀till ongoing in 2024).

However, when🎃 he returned with Alpine in 2021, Alonso appeared rejuvenated.

He returned to the podium at the 2021 Qatar Grand Prix before enjoying his best c👍ampaign since his Ferrari days in 2023 with Aston Martin.

One criticism of Alonso was his inability to w🍒ork in a team environment and to publicly scold his colleagues.

Writing 🎀in his book, 'Unfiltered', Steiner noted a key change Alonso has made during his second F1 stint.

“This is just my opin🌳ion, but in addition✨ to winning the World Endurance Championship while he was out of Formula 1 and becoming a two-time Le Mans winner, Fernando learned how to make his ego work for him, which perhaps he did not do so well in the years before,” Steiner wrote.

“And look at him now. He’s quiet, self-assured༒ and conducts himself immaculately, which means he can put all of his emotional and physical energies into being brilliant on the track. He’s very much like Leꦫwis Hamilton in that respect.”

While Alonso’s personal performances have ꩵremained sky high in 2024,🃏 Aston Martin have slipped back in the pecking order.

Aston Martin secured fift🔯h in the 2024 F1 constructors’ championship, well behind Mercedes in fourth.

However, the team which is o🎃wned by billionaire Lawrence Stroll🍨, is preparing for the future.

Ea𒐪rlier this year they signed Adrian Newey from Red Bull, with the design guru starting work next year.

Andy Cowe꧒ll (ex-Mercedes chief) and Enrico Cardile have also jo𒁏ined the organisation.
