The Race F1 Podcast · Why Hungary weekend is make or break for Alonso · 22 Jul 2026 podcast

So yeah, it certainly loads things up for the team in terms of being able to demonstrate to Alonso that it can at least do what it hasn't been able to do in the past.

Yeah, it's an interesting, definitely an interesting way to split it.

And I think there's a factor when it comes to all driver decisions.

I think it's actually particularly more the case what we're about to say with someone like Lewis Hamilton, but I don't think you can ever deny it with Alonso as well.

But for me, in terms of what I want, I would love to see Fernando stick it out because I think Formula One is a better place with characters like him within it.
