Alonsℱo brought an end 🍃to Schumacher’s reign of F1 domination when he beat the Ferrari driver to back-to-back titles while driving for Renault in 2005 and 2006. 

“It is difficult to pick one because they were all great rivals and very talented drivers as well,” Alonso told Bang & 𒀰Olufse💧n. 

“When I came to this sport, Michael Schumacher was domina✅ting the ra🉐ces and everything, probably that fight with him would still be the one I would choose.

“Fighting against Michael was very specia🔴l, so I would say that.”

Asked to pick the best moments from his illustrious career, Alonso replied: “All the memories from different teams are very linked with the results I♛ got in that mom🅺ent.

“For Ferrariꦓ, I will pick the first race I won. Aston Martin, obviously I will pick [Bahrain] where we got the podium, and from Renault I wil✤l pick the championship.

"The biggest one was the first c🅰hampionship, always the first championship. The second was obviously emotional, but the first one was like a dream come 𝔍true, and a life goal.”

Alonso has enjoyed a dream start to life at Aston Martin, who have proven to be Red Bull’s closest challenger⛦s in 2023 following a sensational winter turnaround. 

Alonso has already claimed three podium finishes from the first three races of the season and is dreaming of ending his decade-long wait for a 33rd career victory, as well as winning an elusive third world title before he retires.&༺nbsp;  

“I always believ💟e it’s possible, that’s why I keep racing,” he said. “The challenge is big, you know that you need to overcome some difficulties and some top teams who are at the top of the sport.

“But I race every day and I train every day thinౠking that the third title is possible.”
