Pedro de la Rosa: Fernando Alonso moved ‘for the best project, not the most money’Pedro de la Rosa believes Fernando Alonso’s move to Aston Martin is fuelled by his competitive streak, not a pay cheque.
Alonso will be Sebastian Vettel’s replacement at Aston Martin in 2023, with confirmation of his switch being made a few days afterThe move from Alpine to Aston Martin is somewhat surprising, given it is an apparent step down in competitiveness based on their current performance levels, with the reasoning for the move seemingly down to Alpine not being willing to offer Alonso a contract longer than for one season.
Team aerodynamicist Raul Martin Santiago, appearing with De la Rosa on the programme, believes Alonso’s switch is just the next step in his process of trying to return to the top of F1.
