Why is Fernando Alonso still F1's most beloved driver?

Fernando Alonso: 20 years in the elite and counting
<p>From his debut at Minardi to his current stint with Aston Martin, <strong>Fernando Alonso has explored every avenue of motorsport</strong>. World champion, rebel, living meme, legend. But what he's never lost is the love of his fans.</p>

<h2>The Alonso style: aggressive, cerebral, eternal</h2>
<p>Few drivers are as respected by engineers and rivals. His ability to read the race, adapt to any car, and stay motivated makes him unique. At 43, he's fitter than many 25-year-olds.</p>

<h2>The culture of “Alonsismo”</h2>
<p>Fernando isn't just a driver: he's a symbol. Phrases like "I don't understand anything, but I trust" and "The Plan" have turned his fandom into a true F1 religion. TikTok, Twitter, YouTube... the content about Alonso continues to grow.</p>

<h2>2026, your last chance?</h2>
<p>With the new regulations and the possible signing of Adrian Newey, Aston Martin can give Alonso <strong>the car he deserves</strong>. If there's any justice in this sport, his third title should come.</p>
