Fernando Alonso reveals 'wild' Aston Martin Bahrain GP and being faster than Lewis Hamilton

Fernando Alonso revealed that he enjoyed the start of the Bahrain Grand Prix, despite making a risky decision to start on soft tyres, which ultimately did not pay off. The race was marked by delays due to rain, leading to varied strategies among drivers. Alonso managed to pull ahead of his former rival Lewis Hamilton during the race, although the slick tyres proved to be a poor choice for the conditions.

Despite the initial setback, Alonso recovered to finish in eighth place, marking a significant achievement for Aston Martin in a challenging season. He expressed satisfaction with the team's performance, highlighting the importance of capitalising on opportunities to score points during rare competitive weekends.
