Alonso is one of the greatest driver of all time. He could have won more titles than Hamilton & Schumacher if he drives the right car at right time. 👍👍
What they mean is the fact that he was taking a potential alpine juniors seat and put in a few mediocre performances at the likes of Spain, Monaco etc.
@@realitycheck908 Alonso is way better driver than Sainz. He is right up there with the very best. He also had a faster car than Sainz. Sainz failed to create some distance even though Alinso and LH were fighting.
this is gonna be remembered as one of the most impressive defensive drives in F1, that Alpine had no business keeping up a Merc for so long and yet Alonso made his car 6 meters wide and denied Lewis the pass like some sort of Spanish gandalf
Alpine had no business keeping up a Merc? Alonso was defending Ocon's lead, and that's business. He probably have less reason to defend this hard if it weren't for Ocon in P1.
@@Higurashi86 what i meant by no business is that the Merc should by all rights have an easy time of it, but thanks to Alonso Hamilton lost any chance at a win. It shouldn't be possible in the Alpine but Alonso made it possible.
Are people even surprised at this? This is the same guy that held off a charging Schumi at Imola '05. Fernando's racing instinct has always been exceptional. True legend!
@@ir161170 he really is fantastic, isn't he! I hope Renault fields a better car next season and we get to see one more season of a competitive Fernando Alonso, with an improved Esteban Ocon as well! They work incredibly well together
In every corner... While on the perspective of Hamilton onboard, it looks like Hamilton overtook Alonso, but after the curve finishes Alonso just appears in front of Hamilton out of nowhere. It's just pure masterclass.
Not really. They call Hungary "Monaco without walls" because of how easy it is to defend there. Hamilton coming from behind to finish on the podium was far more impressive.
@@user-ot2rw5gu2s he passed by other drivers and they could not resist against hamilton.. only alonso hold him for several laps so.......?????? if it was "that" easy, hamilton wouldnt have been taken the 3rd place at the end of the race.

@@camkinoz1434 No, it's called 14 years of bitterness with nothing to lose. The wounded wolf would've happily taken Hamilton out and nearly did so. Like I said, coming from so far behind to take a podium is far more impressive than holding up someone for a few laps on the second easiest track in F1 to defend on.
@@camkinoz1434 No hurt here, just an appreciation of skill and wheel-to-wheel craftsmanship to overtake multiple drivers on the second most difficult track to overtake on in F1. Lewis has been doing this since GP2, nothing new from this pilot.
@@thedeamonmeteor69420 If he didn't commit mistakes like he had, like a jump start, a crash in quali so he couldn't do a lap time and some others he actually would have won by a very long margin in comparison of how close it was, which still amazes me.
Alonso is one of the greatest driver of all time. He could have won more titles than Hamilton & Schumacher if he drives the right car at right time. 👍👍
The way Alonso slows down in front of Hamilton in lap 63, just before the first DRS zone in order to force Hamilton to slow down aswell and to prevent the full use of his DRS was just brilliant !! So smart move from Alonso
in f1 games I have a super strat if there's a DRS detection zone I'd brake and let car behind pass me,allowing me to get DRS,then try to stay as close as I can,and overtake the car and run away I call it the "DRS slingshot"
@@vandecayear10 depends. If the other car is quicker, its the best way to let them pass you as you will have DRS and can try overtake once more. However, if all things are equal, its better to stay in front.
Alonso had done this for almost a whole race with Schumacher trailing him in his ferrari, and he did that with a car with a broken engine. This is Alonso just getting warmed up.
@@pvstar1323 yeah, you are right he was second all the race because of that until kimi retired, but even with that, the difference wasn't as much as between the Alpine and the Mercedes, Hamilton was more than 2 seconds faster with fresh tyres, Alpine had nothing to do to win the race, but Fernando is just Magic and he show what he could do if he had a competitive car, we never show a fight like that between Vettel and Hamilton or Verstappen and Hamilton that had better car to fight
Lewis Hamilton finished two seconds behind Esteban Ocon and one second behind Sebastian Vettel. in the last four laps, he was getting closer to them by two to three seconds per lap. Fernando Alonso held him up for TEN laps. do the math.
At the race I exactly thought the same. Hamilton would have probably past him but Alonsos brake move made LH brake while he could accelerate. On the edge of braketested, but high class and fair
Best part is how clean Alonso's defence was. He squeezed Hamilton but always left enough space for a potential overtake attempt, regardless of him being on the inside or the outside.
@@sorenschroder3941 if Verstappen was in this video instead of Hamilton they would've crashed. I'm rooting for Verstappen but he's just a more aggressive driver.
@@monetum1392 Nah, difference here was simply that Lewis had way more to lose - already being ahead of Verstappen on the road. Both Verstappen and Hamilton are hyper-aggressive when it comes down to title-relevant battles, but they're talented enough to make it work 99% of the time. Lewis's mistake in Silverstone was just an uncharacteristic misjudgement, not him or Max being any more or less aggressive than they always are.
Alonso had more to gain for team/mate but not much to lose by running his car wide. Lewis had a lot more to lose (championship lead) if they collided, thus why he would always backed out. The battle at Hungary is overblown really. lol especially considering it's a train track that's already almost impossible to overtake. Ask Vettel and all the other drivers that day who were stuck.
This is one of those "we were there" moments. This is also one of those clips that people will never stop sharing, one of those clips that plays at the start of each practice, quali and race at the Hungarian.

@@user-ot2rw5gu2s Sainz said in the interview that weekend that it shouldn't be called like that anymore, since the track is much faster and the cars allow for better chances at overtaking than before

It's Hamilton man, the same guy who got held up for multiple laps by Perez when a world title was on the line. Despite the fact Perez was driving a slower car and was on much older tyres. Hamilton struggles to overtake cars who don't simply pull over to let him through as they know his car is much faster.
@@footballnerd277 Lol the redbull was faster in 21 but go off I guess? As for perez's defending, he held up hamilton so well because he completely sacrificed his laptimes to hold up hamilton, in a normal defence perez would still be doing normal laptimes just slightly slower
I wanna see a full, uncut version of this battle If he wasn’t already in your hall of fame, this should convince you. Still able to go redline, tooth and nail with the younger guys. Gives me hope for my 40s
Hamilton isn't much younger than Alonso though. Both exceptional drivers in all aspects. Hamilton outperforming Alonso in '07 as a rookie was pretty telling of how great Hamilton truly is though.
Hi, I'm just following the highlights. But isn't Hamilton the better one cuz he overtook him? What's special about Hamilton that he's expected to overtake
@@RaviChandran-fv5lo Hamilton had a way supirior car. If they would've been in the same car Alonso would've probably come on a higher position than Hamilton in my opinion.
As a max fan, this was the moment I realized that Alonso is An absolute beast! And probably the most competitive driver on the track. This is pure experience and finesse, I think this Guy does not get the respect hè deserves
He is the best now...of coure we cannot see that cause formula 1 is so boring nowdays...cars do the 90%...but man, alonso wooow...he could still be WC and he's the best driver right now i think...among lewis max charles and carlos...but alonse ahead all of them
As a RedBull fan my day was ruined until I saw this ultimate battle. I was on the edge of my seat! What a day what a battle that was. Alonso was showing everyone why he is 2 times WDC.
This was the most fun I'd ever had watching f1, Lewis and Alonso going all out, Alonso with a slower car holding him up that long was crazy. If Lewis had gotten by 2 laps earlier, he'd easily won the race.
@@Dohmk I think he would've... cuz just before the finish line he was only half a second from Vettel and would've easily gotten drs over the main straight
Nah. Hamilton beat Alonso in the same car and made him run away from being his teammate 1 year into what was supposed to be a 3 year contract at McLaren before winning a title with McLaren instead of Alonso the next year. How does the best driver of the last 2 decades let a rookie destroy his career in such a humiling way?
@@MT-pv2rf As far as I remember, they both tied with 109 points in 2007. Taking into account that the whole team was against Alonso because they were a British team supporting a British driver and also because the British always were racist towards the Spanish, I wouldn't buy your opinion. With equal engines, Alonso is a better driver.
when did he say that , didnt you hear lewis after the race he said thats how driving should be and i couldnt agree more , lewis gave alonso space when he felt there would be contact and so did alonso , the fact that both of them werent overly agressive and knew the limit is truly exceptional they didnt make moves that could hinder the entire race of the other driver or even themselves.
@@giberishme448 yes. That’s true. But saying things like that on radio is like him egging Michael Massi to give ppl penalties when actually, nothing was wrong. Even Alonso said once before “Lewis likes to complain”
@@AsadNazif it's the equivalent of a football player pretending to be injured so the referee shows a yellow card. It's annoying, but it's part of his strategy.
ALONSO the rockstar... Masterclass in defensive driving. 7 time WDC in a car 3.5 seconds faster per lap and being humbled.. Alonso is definitely amongst the greatest ever even if he doesn't add more titles to his name, take a bow champ 💕🔥💖
It was the immense amount of pressure from Hamilton that made Alonso lock up.. I don't understand why people try and act like Alonso just randomly locked up.. You try defending the greatest F1 driver of all time for 10 laps in a weaker car.. It was inevitable he would get him but that was class from Alonso to hold him off for that long.
@@PiikachUwU_OSRS i think hamiltons "dangerous" comment was just in the heat of the moment. In this Video he takes another stance and as far as i know has not critizised Alsonso for dangerous driving again.
@@PiikachUwU_OSRS It was in the heat in the moment so now we gonna start basing people's personalities on any anger they show on radio 😂 I guess then the whole field toxic assh*les for constantly swearing at each other and calling each other names 🤔
I absolutely loved every single second of this battle. Both drivers got me into F1 in 2007 and seeing them in 2021 racing like their lives depended on it, I can't even explain the feeling haha
I remember a race in Singapore where Alonso holded Vettel for most of the race. Fernando won by less than 3 tenths. Indeed he is one of the best defenders I’ve ever seen, he’s still got it!
Actually he did that the entire race. After the race he said that he allowed Vettel to be close to him on purpose, then Vettel couldn't cool the brakes and couldn't attack him. That race was Singapore 2010.
@@elfoares This race was much more reminiscent of Alonso in the 2005 San Marino GP where he held off a much faster Michael Schumacher for 11 laps to win. And to think Alonso was not only slower than Schumi then but also on engine conservation mode because that was his second race for that engine.
@@rumblefish9 yes. You are right. Alonso and Renault also said they were in conservation engine mode not because it was the second race for that engine, they found out before the race that one cylinder was not working and it was damaged but they didn't know how much. Then, they decided to take the risk and racing with this engine but with less power and not changing it and take the 10 grid positions penalty. In the RUclips F1 channel there is a video about this battle with Alonso reactions and he remembers the story again. Cheers!!
@@NeelkanthEarthmovers in my list alonso is number 3 and michael and lewis on equal . if alonso chose some correct teams he couldve easily got number 2 tied between 3 because in my opinion the true GOAT of F1 will always be kimi
Came here looking for this comment. I noticed this during the race, Alonso knew Hamilton would have a better run to turn 2, so by hesitating he caused Hamilton to lose momentum and therefore no challenge into turn 2.
Well spotted. Hamilton saw it too and thats why he hung back a little more on the next lap so Alonso couldn't do the same thing again. The lockup from Fernando helped out too, but Croft clearly didn't understand what Lewis was doing from his comment at 2:23...
Fantastic defending from Alonso, reminds me of Canadian GP where Lewis tries to brake to get DRS but Alonso anticipates this and brakes as well, securing the DRS. Fantastic drivers both of them.
Alonso said he was also using the screens to mark Hamilton's positions - and that my friends is what you call a pro gamer move. He is legendary Renault entertained this weekend
Even with an Alpine, Alonso can teach almost everyone on the grid new lessons on how to drive an F1 car like a lion 😂 Imagine what he would be doing even at this age if he had a better car.
@@itsstan9644 he's gotten way too used to having no competition aside from Bottas who would just let him through and be his loyal lapdog 99% of the time. this year when given competition and when having to battle his way through (Perez, Verstappen, Alonso) instead of free championships with a 2 secs faster car he has turned into a whiny crybaby
You canot deny Alonso's greatness in this. he was able to defend a vastly superior car which could do a second a lap quicker with ease. lewis was on fresher mediums, alonso on old hards. this is a true legend, and possibly one of the greatest up there with schumacher and senna.
Maturity is a compound of experience, wisdom, goodwill, resilience, creativity and to see the bigger picture. Two Super Legends wheel to wheel! What a master class race!
@@user-ot2rw5gu2s he didn’t. As far as I know, both Alonso and Hamilton got 109 points while Raikonen won with 110. Taking into account that alonso had the whole tram and Ron Dennis against him, it takes a lot of merit.
@@raizox6134 Nope. Alonso brought it all on himself. He wanted preferential treatment, that is, he wanted to be the number 1 driver in the team but Lewis was simply too quick. Hamilton outqualified him 6 poles to Alonso's 2. Lewis also had more podium finishes that's why the rookie beat the back-to-back world champion.
Seeing it live was one of the best experiences of my life. Massive roars and applause every time they drove past the crowd will forever remain in my memory!
@@user-ot2rw5gu2s lol trust me the guys have so much hate for LH. They all seem to have forgotten how Alonso lost the WDC in Abu Dhabi in 2010 when he couldn’t overtake Petrov for 35 laps….and he was fighting for the championship in the final race…
@@tha1f1ghter what does this have to do with hating Lewis, or even what happened in the past? People are impressed by his ability to hold back a faster car. Let people enjoy things
Hamilton Fan here. The defence by Alonso was rather majestic. Just on the limit, and at the same time so entertaining. A great, great driver and will be sad the day this man retires.
ladies and gentlemen, a short view back to the past, in the 2021 Hungarian GP, fenando alonso was blocking lewis, and lewis complained saying "it was too dangerous". Then later in the press confernece, he says "That is how racing shoubd be" Question to lewis. What statement is the correct statement in your opinnion, and why?

“At that speed is so dangerous man”
when did he say that , didnt you hear lewis after the race he said thats how driving should be and i couldnt agree more , lewis gave alonso space when he felt there would be contact and so did alonso , the fact that both of them werent overly agressive and knew the limit is truly exceptional they didnt make moves that could hinder the entire race of the other driver or even themselves.

It was the immense amount of pressure from Hamilton that made Alonso lock up.. I don't understand why people try and act like Alonso just randomly locked up..

I remember a race in Singapore where Alonso holded Vettel for most of the race. Fernando won by less than 3 tenths.
Indeed he is one of the best defenders I’ve ever seen, he’s still got it!
Actually he did that the entire race. After the race he said that he allowed Vettel to be close to him on purpose, then Vettel couldn't cool the brakes and couldn't attack him. That race was Singapore 2010.
@@elfoares Legend!
@@elfoares This race was much more reminiscent of Alonso in the 2005 San Marino GP where he held off a much faster Michael Schumacher for 11 laps to win. And to think Alonso was not only slower than Schumi then but also on engine conservation mode because that was his second race for that engine.
@@rumblefish9 yes. You are right. Alonso and Renault also said they were in conservation engine mode not because it was the second race for that engine, they found out before the race that one cylinder was not working and it was damaged but they didn't know how much. Then, they decided to take the risk and racing with this engine but with less power and not changing it and take the 10 grid positions penalty. In the RUclips F1 channel there is a video about this battle with Alonso reactions and he remembers the story again. Cheers!!

Came here looking for this comment. I noticed this during the race, Alonso knew Hamilton would have a better run to turn 2, so by hesitating he caused Hamilton to lose momentum and therefore no challenge into turn 2.
Woah I hadn't noticed that ! What subtle and cheeky move :D
Thanks for pointing it out mate!
Glad you saw that :D

Fantastic defending from Alonso, reminds me of Canadian GP where Lewis tries to brake to get DRS but Alonso anticipates this and brakes as well, securing the DRS. Fantastic drivers both of them.
Alonso said he was also using the screens to mark Hamilton's positions - and that my friends is what you call a pro gamer move. He is legendary Renault entertained this weekend
I need to see Alonso live on the podium at least once in my life.
