Fernando Alonso has now been backed by more than one Formula 1 leader to excel in his new team colours.
The Spaniard may turn 42 later this year, but he is showing few signs of slowing down. Most in his position would be winding their careers down or would have retired already, but Alonso is bucking the trend and has begun a new chapter with Aston Martin.
His move from Alpine was something of a surprise at the time, though it quickly became clear why he had chosen to make the switch. Alonso's old employer was offering only a one-year deal, and he wanted his F1 future to be more secure.
