“He’s got this incredible sixth sense for what's going around him - both politicallyꦑ and tactically in a race, and he’s quick. He’s very much admired.
“I think every racing driver looks at h𒈔im and 💃thinks ‘now there’s a good contender’. Not someone to be taken likely’.”
Given his age, Hiꦗll is doubtful Alonso will be on the grid in 2026 for the inaugural event, however acknowledged that “you should ജnever discount him”.
“Honestly, I would be amazed if he’s still going by then. You should never discount him, neve﷽r discou🎉nt it,” he added.
