Fernando Alonso may have some people convinced he is the ultimate team player – but one Formula 1 veteran claims he can see through the Spaniard's act.
At the age of 41, Alonso's renaissance has been one of the stories of the season so far. A move to Aston Martin was undoubtedly a risk, but so far it has more than paid off as he is back where he wants to be – fighting at the front.
The Silverstone team has made enormous performance strides in the last 12 months and has arguably the second quickest car on the grid in these early weeks of the season, behind the Red Bulls. As a result, everyone associated with Aston Martin is in dreamland right now.
