Fernando Alonso Embraces His Meme, Sets Fastest Lap Of Hungarian Grand Prix
Fernando Alonso Embraces His Meme, Sets Fastest Lap Of Hungarian Grand Prix-April 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:11:21

Fernando Alonso isn’t quite living his best life, but he did have his best finish of the season so far at today’s Formula One Hungarian Grand Prix, clinching the fastest lap of the race and embracing his iconic meme.

It was Alonso’s birthday yesterday, and today he wasn’t gifted with a win, but his Honda-powered McLaren didn’t give up on him which is about as much as he could have asked for at this point.

Sebastian Vettel won the Hungarian Grand Prix today to hold his place as points leader, but Alonso finished P6 with the fastest lap of the race, setting a 1:20:182 lap time—a little surprising probably even to him.

His weekend looked pretty fun, racing cars and sprawling out over a giant mural of his iconic ‘’ meme:

Looks like a good, refreshing finish for Alonso heading into the summer break. Enjoy the time to experience as many places you’d rather be as possible.

The figurative dismantling of the decaying , once a massive, high-speed oval that hosted the top tiers of U.S. auto racing, began when those tiers bypassed it for more convenient, better-located venues as early as the 1970s. Decades later, the actual dismantling has begun, as the first houses in a...

Ferrari has never been a road going car company, it’s a racing team that sells cars to fund its racing team. Well, that may not be the case anymore, what with the realities of business, but as long as Enzo was alive it was the gospel. This might be the...
