Speaking in a team preview ahead of the 2022 Imola GP, the Alpine driver said:
Imola will have bonus points up for grabs with the extra sprint race on Saturday, which Fernando Alonso hopes to capitalize on. The Spaniard believes it will not be difficult to overtake at the iconic Italian circuit and expects a lot of action across the field.
In terms of performance, the Spaniard was optimistic and said:
After a tough weekend in Australia, the Spaniard lamented his misfortune and hoped for some good fortune in the next 20 races. According to team principal Otmar Szafnauer, a 2.6 dollar part had ruined his qualifying session which could have been a top three classification for the Spaniard.
Fernando Alonso is looking forward to the first sprint of the 2022 season
The Alpine champion hailed the changes made by the sport to include sprint races to spice up the race weekend. Based on his experience from the last sprint weekend in 2021, Fernando Alonso mentioned that he enjoyed the short races. He hopes to maximize the opportunities available at Imola.
Voicing his opinion on the sprint format at the Imola GP weekend, the Spanish driver said:
The double champion has only scored two points in the first three race weekends of the 2022 season, while his team-mate Esteban Ocon has scored 20 points. Despite a glitchy start to the current season, the Alpine car is expected to improve to allow Fernando Alonso to seek wins and podiums.
