Fernando Alonso came home 15th in Sunday’s Azerbaijan Grand Prix after qualifying 11th, which led the Aston Martin racer to slam his bad luck over the 2025 Formula 1 season. He said unexpected occurrences that shake up the field only come along when the team is on form.
The Spaniard qualified just outside the top 10 in Baku, ahead of the Ferrari of Lewis Hamilton and three positions clear of team-mate Lance Stroll. However, a false start from McLaren’s Oscar Piastri in front led Alonso to jump the gun as well, which saw him lose places off the line and pick up a five-second time penalty.
