The Asturian rider seeks victory number 33 at the Hungarian GP, the second pole position at this circuit
The slow curves of the Hungarian circuit invite optimism in the British team
Since his return in the 2021 season to replace Ricciardo, there is speculation when it could be the 33rd victory in the Asturian driver’s career. Hungaroring is a fetish circuit for Alonso, since whenever he has been presented he has triumphed.
Everything indicates that the AMR23 will be able to fly over the Hungarian GP due to its slow corners.
If the British team acclimatized a circuit to the design of its car, it would not be very far from the Hungarian circuit. This weekend may be a turning point for Aston Martin’s season.
Alonso in 2003 became the youngest driver to win a Formula 1 Grand Prix, it was in Hungary and with Renault as a team. In addition to being the first Spaniard to do so, with just 22 years and 26 days.

The best performances of the Asturian have come with slow corners at medium speedWe will see if in this Grand Prix Alonso can demonstrate his potential with the AMR23.
The best example of the Hungarian circuit is Monacowhere the Spanish runner was very close to victory behind Max Verstappen.
