Fernando Alonso remains optimistic about his future with Aston Martin despite a challenging start to the 2025 Formula 1 season, where he has yet to score any points with the AMR25, which has not been competitive. The Spanish driver, who is 43, has expressed his desire to continue racing until at least the end of 2026, driven by the upcoming regulation changes and the arrival of Honda as the team's engine supplier.
Alonso's contract with Aston Martin extends beyond his racing career, indicating his commitment to the team in various capacities. He has emphasized his willingness to help the team succeed, whether as a driver or in another role, and has stated he will be the first to step aside if he feels he is no longer competitive.
The Aston Martin team is currently struggling, ranking seventh in the constructors' championship with only 10 points after five races. Alonso is hopeful about the team's future, particularly with the involvement of Adrian Newey, who started later than preferred and is focusing on the 2026 regulations rather than the current car's performance.
Lewis Hamilton, who recently joined Ferrari, is facing adaptation challenges with his new team. The seven-time world champion has acknowledged the difficulties in adjusting to a car and team accustomed to a different driving style and pilot, Carlos Sainz, whom he replaced. Hamilton is also preparing for a fashion event, the Met Gala 2025.
In the McLaren team, Lando Norris is confident in his ability to compete against teammate Oscar Piastri in the 2025 title fight. Despite Piastri's recent successes, Norris believes he can overcome his current struggles and return to top form, aided by his work in the team's simulator.
