It’s become quite clear during this race that Fernando Alonso is essentially the gold standard for drivers right now.
He’s operating on an entirely different level than everyone else; once you account for him, there’s a massive gap before you even get to Felipe Massa, let alone the rest of the field. 🙏
It looks like it’s going to be a brutal season for Aki, especially having to deal with a teammate like that 🙄
Honestly, it’s embarrassing to watch him drag the reputation of our beloved McLaren through the mud like this having to watch a half-baked Aguri squeeze right past him on the track 😲
It’s just disgraceful; I bet his uncle is tossing and turning in bed tonight thinking about this mess 😳

Following Hamilton's success in Indy Lights, he was picked up by ART Grand Prix for the 2006 IndyCar season. Much like how ASM dominated in Indy Lights, ART were the class of the field as they were the reigning champions after taking the 2005 IndyCar title with Nico Rosberg. Hamilton went on to win the IndyCar championship at his first attempt. ...
this could also serve as a useful point of comparison... Nico also managed to take the title during his only season...
given that there have only been two seasons of the IndyCar Series 😁
