Fernando Alonso is unwell and has missed the Mexican Grand Prix press conferences, and will not drive for Aston Martin in FP1.
Of course, this last step was planned and is not related to his poor health, because in the first training session the Spaniard's place will definitely be taken by test driver Felipe Drugovich. Aston Martin did not reveal what caused Alonso's health problems, we hope that he does not have any more serious problems. If everything is OK and the two-time world champion feels better, then on Saturday night European time he could already be on the track during training.
We are not worried about the "old man", he is a great warrior and would not miss this event for any money, where Ayrton Senna, Michael Schumacher or Lewis Hamilton will carve his name in this particular stone. Forever.
