As a Lewis fan obviously in the early days Fernando was someone I didn't want on the podium but since his second McLaren stint I can't help but genuinely want him to win races. Vamos Fernando Alonso!!!
Being Schumacher fan since 94, at the beginning Hamilton was one of my favourites after Kimi and Jenson while I couldn't stand Fernando but exactly as you said, since his second McLaren career my respect towards him grew massively, him, Charles, Yuki and Mick are now my main favourites while I totally lost my respect for Hamilton. And his fans are the worst by far. But you showed lot of class right now and I appreciate that there are fans like you 👍🏻 I think many share similar opinion on Fernando, while others might have had more talent nobody in his era worked harder than him, very much like Schumacher and Prost.
@@thurbine2411 for sure mainly his politics. On one side he claims he is claiming to be against racism yet he is promoting racist group. Also he is helping kids but only if they tick the skin colour box, either African or middle eastern. Also the fact that he is by many being heralded as a clean driver when he is most collision prone driver on the grid today. And his fans are not making things better. Plus he is massively overrated.
@@ducedevlstear2471 well I don’t think he is helping non white kids because he doesn’t like white people or something but when he grew up in motorsport there were very few and they still have a harder time getting to higher levels so he wants to focus on them because they have it harder.
Alonso is one of the greatest f1 drivers He is the last driver to win the world championship and he didn't have the best car when he did it not like today
True. He won two championships back to back with a team that isn't the best and financially one of the weakest teams. Hamilton's achievements were not because he was a skilled driver. It was the Mercedes car that got him the championships. Honestly even Schumacher's brother could have done better with such an op car.
@@HighLander-mp6vhalonso was Max Verstappen of sumis era.. No car need just his hand is enough to wrestling car Throwing the car flat out in corner and creating Understeer... No one will never ever copy his driving style...
the Renault was clearly better in 05 and most of the time in 06. (Due to Michelin and Suspension) But not THAT much better than Hamiltons Mercedeses or Schumachers Ferrari in 04.
Fisi have same car starting of the season and he was always 1 sec slower than Alonso. Alonso whole career is all about outform machine with his unparalleled skills...something like Prost..@@scottwilson8742
Incredible talent, from day 1, he could make that Renault scream louder than anyone, Michael certainly had a rear mirror full of Alonso for a while until he was chasing him.
He was kriptonyte for michel...shame that this man have only 2 titels he was made for becoming undisputed goat of all goats in f1...his carrer Choice was very bad due to his bad manager... In his prime he was extremely arrogant he always said in his time that he Don't need car he can win with anything... He although prove that in his ferrari time...but It's harsh truth in f1 that if You're 2 sec faster than anyone if you Don't have a car You're tallents always musks... The level of driving this man prossed in his prime is insane he can one hand in a car beat anyone... 😊
Such an awkward podcast. Alonso is such a raw simple no BS talent but Jake Humphrey’s wants to dig deeper into feelings. With alonso there is no feelings. He wakes up, he drives, he wins that’s literally it.
Alonso's approach, entirely cold and linear, felt mechanized and robotic. It needed more than just a systematic chain of redundant questions about his emotions or thoughts at moments when it's very clear that he's focused on driving, coming across as overly direct. Well,. Regards
@@humono9810 I’d disagree I think he came across genuine. As in, he genuinely just deals with the task in hand, very straight and honest fella. Jake was crying on a podcast couple years ago. It’s like he wants others to admit that it’s ok to fail too. Some people just don’t fail, i for sure do, but your alonsos, kimis, verstappens just don’t. They are elite athletes.
I’m glad he asked him those questions, because it was really interesting to see inside the mind of a champion who *doesn’t* suffer from self-doubt. I think it’s hard for a lot of people to comprehend the confidence that a champion carries with him.
@@specter290they want to push the narrative that everyone doubts their abilities, even the best. Which just isn’t true. They also wanted Fernando to open up on his regrets but he doesn’t really have many. He’s very Max like. Matter of fact, to the point, a racer through and through.
No, the FIA dethroned Michael with their dreadful tyre rule in 2005 (where one tyre had to last the entire race). Alonso was amazing and one of my favourites, but the FIA nerfed Ferrari.

McLaren and Ferrari was a faster car it was the way he drove won him the championship he had a completely different style in the turns

His time in Ferrari puts him, for me, as GOAT, dude challenge for championships in shitty cars. As Senna in the Toleman.
I'm not sure it was him Bridgestone teams were no where at least in the first year he won the title
@@ziodres2212what Michael did on Bennetton?
The FIA was kryptonite for Michael. Alonso is great and fast, but especially 2005 was more of a gift. We should not forget Kimi‘s bad luck.

@@rezamotin7305 Yeah he kept asking Aloso about self doubt but ALonso said I never self doubt or have fears lol

what a nice guy
Alonso was the Max Verstappen of the 2000s
🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
Verstappen 🤝 Alonso
You misspelled "best". Don't worry, can happen to the bullies of us😉
Schumi # 1 ❤
Nando in that Renault was scary
Alonso and Raikkonen were the only two drivers that could challenge Schumacher in the 2000s
Häkkinen in the 2000s tried
True. Montoya had moments but he was too inconsistent.
JPM also, he was like Kimi very close to beat Schumi in 2003 if it was not because of bad luck with the BMW engine’s reliability
💜🦋
Alonso dethroned Michael's dominance and Ferrari with a car that was 2nd best.
😂😂😂😂😂 in 2005 the ferrari was pretty bad
And alonso in the best car in 2005
No, the FIA dethroned Michael with their dreadful tyre rule in 2005 (where one tyre had to last the entire race). Alonso was amazing and one of my favourites, but the FIA nerfed Ferrari.
