#6 Fernando Alonso in Australia

Australian F1 Grand Prix
Australian F1 Grand Prix

Fernando Alonso is known for extracting everything available in the car allotted to him. However, in Australia, the Spaniard exceeded everybody’s expectations when he drove his McLaren to a fifth-place finish.

The two-time world champion started from 10th and wove his way up to fifth, buoyed by the double retirement of Hass drivers, Kevin Magnussen and Romain Grosjean, along with Carlos Sainz running off the track.

Alonso quickly made up places and even endured pressure from Max Verstappen in the later stages of the race to start the season with McLaren in the points.
