During the 400th Grand Prix of Fernando Alonsoin Mexico, had to leave for a Front brake temperature problem. A problem that the Asturian tried to resolve with the engineers by radio during the race. But he didn’t succeed.
In front of the microphones of ‘DAZN’, he explained what the problem was and how they tried to solve it: “Apparently we had a problem with the brakes, the pedal was a bit long…”
“We made some changes in the last few laps, The engineers told me to back off the brakes a little to see if the temperatures at the front would drop.“But I think a little dirt or a ‘tear’ or something got into the brake inlet and the temperature, which is already high here, exploded,” explains the two-time Formula 1 champion.
He believes these problems are simply due to bad luck: “It’s a bit of chance and a bit of bad luckbut it was still a positive weekend as we were able to celebrate with the fans here in Mexico all the love and enthusiasm.”
Expect better results in the future. Because Aston Martin is in the middle of a crisis with some updates that make the car worse over the races: “We will come back stronger next year, that’s for sure.”
