Fernando Alonso has been performing exceptionally well since joining Aston Martin. He has reached a superior level since his return to the highest level of motor racing. Additionally, since becoming a part of Aston Martin, he has elevated his performance and consistently competes at the top end of the grid.
Many respected individuals have recognized the strength of Fernando Alonso, including the father of Sergio Perez. He is a great admirer of the 42-year-old driver.
Alonso recently signed a new contract with the Aston Martin F1 team, extending his commitment for multiple years.
The 2023 season was incredibly successful for the two-time world champion. He demonstrated exceptional performance in the AMR23 from the very beginning, earning a significant number of points and achieving numerous podium finishes. He has also started the current season strongly.
While Perez Sr. praises Alonso wholeheartedly, he hopes that one day his son will outperform Max Verstappen. Sergio joined Red Bull in 2021 but has yet to win a world championship against Verstappen, who has secured two consecutive titles under the current regulations.
Antonio Perez is highly respected within the F1 community and, like any father, desires the best for his son. However, considering Max Verstappen’s exceptional form since winning his first world championship, it appears highly unlikely that Sergio Perez will be able to stop him anytime soon. Furthermore, Perez’s current contract with Red Bull expires at the end of the ongoing season, putting his F1 career at stake.
