Martin Brundle thinks Aston Martin should move on from Fernando Alonso, but where do you stand?

tonylane2w ago

I think stroll should go or keep him and pay him on performance

Why let Alonso go and keep Lance? Put a young driver next to Fernando and he will learn quickly.

Would you let Lance go if you were Lawrence? I couldn't bring myself to

I still feel they have been let down by Honda big time. I would keep Alonso, he isn't finished yet.

david.comerford2w ago

Honda's engine isn't up to standard, but equally the chassis wasn't fit for purpose till Hungary either

Alonso is a dinosaur now.. he started f1 in 2001 … geez😳 he’s done his bit, he needs to quit before he’s a pensioner, there are a number of them holding on that shouldn’t be there, they need to give youngsters the opportunity.. read hulkenberg, Hamilton etc . They’ve had their time .. let some fresh blood in plenty coming up knocking on the door

david.comerford2w ago

Shouldn't it be about performance more than age though?

Ring kiwi hotshot Liam Lawson he get job done ✔️

david.comerford2w ago

Brundle said they should get a couple of drivers in their mid-20s. Lawson fits the bill 👀

I would replace all 3. Newey not so newey anymore. His time is done also. Aston Martin need a lineup like alpine. Just dont even think about going for piastri and "Riccardo-ing" him

gramorris2w ago

I think I agree. Look whatever has gone on there it’s bad. We know what Lance is, he’s not offering anything. The fact that Alonso is still there says something, although you could make a case he was hoping Newey wasn’t Oldy. And then the Newey thing. the mistakes they’ve made will echo in to next season and if they’re lucky no further but it could go on

david.comerford2w ago

Too early to write off Newey. Give him another couple of years

Lol is he for real. No, the team/hierarchy need a good looking at. Let's get rid of Alonso, the only driver to get points and finish top 10 while Stroll is guaranteed to finish last. If Alonso was taken by a bigger team he probably would have won some races or another championship.

david.comerford2w ago

Feels like making a change for the sake of it, but engineers don't think that way

david.comerford2w ago

I see where Brundle is coming from, but the best solution would be to replace Stroll and keep Alonso, who's still performing at an elite level. Unfortunately, Lawrence won't do that, for understandable reasons.

I’d replace both drivers tbh. Fresh chapter needed, with new infrastructure and Newey behind the scenes

eoin2w ago

This team has been a huge disappointment. Love alonso but something has to change, especially with Newey there.

seanfisher2w ago

Yeah feels like time for a new chapter. If I was in charge I’d probably replace both drivers tbh
