It's tense in the fight for P3 in the Constructors' Championship. Racing Point are P3 and are followed by McLaren and Renault by a difference of just six points. In the hunt for P3, Renault are already benefiting from the return of two-time world champion Fernando Alonso in 2021.
Hard-working Alonso
Alonso is already closely involved in the team this season and is therefore already making his mark within the French ranks. According to Esteban Ocon his future teammate, the Spaniard is very driven.
Motorsportweek.com quoted the Frenchman: "I have already seen how driven he is. He sent me a message in which he said that if we need anything, he is ready. It is good that he is already in the simulator at the moment."
"We actually have three perspectives, because I, Daniel and he are all practicing in the simulator before the race," Ocon continued. "A good start with three confirmations is better than two. It is very good that he is already working with the simulation team. I'm sure he'll be at the races soon."
Renault has been in good shape over the last few races. The team were even able to take to the podium again at the Nurburgring as Daniel Ricciardo finished P3.
