Fernando Alonso to race with McLaren in 2018
We’ve been waiting for confirmation for weeks now and we’ve finally got the announcement that Fernando Alonso will be racing with McLaren for the 2018 Formula 1 Season.
Fernando Alonso will continue to race alongside his current team-mate, Stoffel Vandoorne as the McLaren team now look forward to the 2018 Formula 1 season following their announcement a few weeks ago, ending their partnership with Honda and switching to Renault power.
Here’s what the driver had to say following the announcement.
Fernando Alonso – “It’s fantastic to be able to continue my relationship with everybody at McLaren. It was always where my heart was telling me to stay and I really feel at home here. This is a fantastic team, full of incredible people with a warmth and friendliness that I have never experienced elsewhere in Formula 1. I’m incredibly happy to be racing here.”
“It’s just as important as McLaren has the technical resource and the financial strength to be able to very quickly win races and World Championships in F1 – although the last few years have not been easy, we have never forgotten how to win and I believe we can achieve that again soon.”
“The last three years have given us the momentum to plan and build for the future and I’m looking forward to that journey – I’m excited for our future together and I’m already working hard to make it a success.”
