The 400th Grand Prix of Fernando Alonso

The Spanish driver will reach a milestone in Mexico

A career full of success

Fernando Alonso will enter the select club of drivers with 400 or more Formula 1 Grands Prix on Sunday. Specifically, the Spaniard will reach this milestone at the Mexican Grand Prix, where he will be looking to add a new achievement to his brilliant career.

Alonso debuted in Formula 1 in 2001 and immediately showed his talent. He won his first race in 2003 and became world champion in 2005 and 2006 with Renault.

After several years out of Formula 1, Alonso returned in 2021 with Alpine and has shown that he is still one of the best drivers on the grid. This season, he has been fighting for the podium on several occasions and is currently ninth in the standings.

Mexico will be a special race for Alonso, as it was there that he won his first Grand Prix in 2003.

Alonso's statistics in Formula 1

• 400 Grands Prix
• 32 wins
• 2 world championships
• 22 pole positions
• 97 podiums
• 2,249 points

His chances in the Mexican Grand Prix

Alonso is not expected to fight for victory in Mexico, but he could finish on the podium if everything goes his way.

The Alpine A522 is not the fastest car on the grid, but it is reliable and consistent. Alonso will need to make a good start and avoid mistakes to have a chance of fighting for the podium.

The Mexican Grand Prix is always a special race, and Alonso will be looking to make it a memorable one by reaching the milestone of 400 Grands Prix.
