I was at the Indy500 when Alonso was making his move from p7 to take over the lead…he was charging back up the field when his engine took a dump. When he got out of the car he received the largest standing ovation of the grid…we all knew he could possibly achieve the triple crown with his win and were devastated not to see it.
Something that is not mentioned or perhaps overlooked is the fact that he was world karting champion in 1996, only Max (2013) and Alonso made it to F1 as world champions.
The person which is Fernando Alonso is handsome and he is the person with noble manners and culture,he is the man with the greatest talent of being the racer and no words can be added to it all as the result.Fernando Alonso is worth of being called one of the best ones,and HE is Worth of being Loved as he is forever and ever .
The only other racers I have ever seen repair the car and get back in the fight was A.J. Foyt and a Dale Earnhardt Sr. .... Good company if you ask me!
I didn't start calling Fernando Alonso King Fernie until his first podium finish as an Aston Martin driver. It's a shame i recently got back into the Formula 1 scene because I didn't even know about Fernando
he was electrocuted by McLaren and Honda in testing 2015 and went to hospital and had amnesia. Thats why McLaren didn’t fire him and he dissed Honda big time but Honda got sour grapes and sabotaged him in Indy all 3 times he competed.
How many of these Alonso facts did you know? Did we leave any major ones out? Let us know in the comments.

Thanks for sharing oldboy🙌 did NOT know that 🤘
Not true. Lando and Logan Sargeant did so as well.
@@torosytoros Nono, he saying WORLD champion. Lando and Logan are not world champions. (yet)
Nick de Vries bro…
@@LouisArnold_ Nyck is very far from beeing an F1 world champion
Alonso is quite possibly the most talented racing driver in the world. All he needed was a car good enough to prove it.

Racing for Gazoo Toyota Hilux in the Dakar in 2020 finished 13th(leading rookie). After crashing he repaired his car and continued racing.
I did not know that!! That’s incredible thanks for sharing

"Crash" is an understatement. The car fell from a huge dune and tumbled down. Many had the same accident
I did not think id respect him even more after watching this (because i already do so much). Boy i was wrong, i respect him millions times more
Thanks for your comment Zidane!
Really appreciate you taking the time 🤘🙌
Fernando ❤❤❤
Have to love the guy! such a legend
Did you know: KIMOA - is a tribute to his old rival Kimi Raikkonen and it stands for KIMi bwOAh

Good pronunciation in spanish, congratulations.

One of the greatest ever!
Today while researching about Poland Syndrome, I came across him, lucky that I share the same thing he has.
0:43 come on… it’s Karting, not “carting”!
This would be acceptable in a generic content channel, but this is RACE! Come on…
He can't believe in God. He's God

Taylor Swift ?!?! Really 🙌 it’s totally possible, would love jt tobe true
4:40 Bahrain 2016?? its australia
If you listen closely, he is talking about Alonso not being able to take part in Bahrain, as he injured himself in the previous race in Australia.
Lewis Hamilton is the only non Ferrari driver having more than 100 podiums! Will it soon change?
Him need to seek Christ before the party is over when all the fame and fortune is all gone
