Fernando Alonso has made it clear that he's satisfied with his career and that for now he doesn't plan to retire.
Fernando Alonso has sent a clear message about his future in Formula 1. The Aston Martin driver, at 43 years old, has made clear what his priorities are. His determination to continue competing at the highest level remains intact.

Fernando Alonso's Statement
Alonso's message hints at his commitment to Aston Martin. If the British team doesn't provide him with a competitive car, his stay could be affected. The Spaniard needs a car capable of fighting for victories and titles.

In the morning session, Alonso finished 0.446 seconds off the best time. Andrea Kimi Antonelli, from Mercedes, set the fastest lap with 1:31.428. Behind were drivers like Liam Lawson, Alexander Albon, and Yuki Tsunoda.
While preseason times are not always indicative of real performance, Alonso continues to demonstrate his talent. His hunger for victory remains intact. The 2025 season will be key for his future in Formula 1.
