I know the car is getting the traditional Aston Martin mid-season downgrades, but Alonso has not been great lately either. Is he finally getting old, or is he still feeling the post-China hand injury? That was his last great race weekend wasn’t it?
I think it’s the car more than him. Papa Stroll hasn’t thrown enough money at upgrading the car yet so they fall behind. Feel like the same happened last year.

Just my guess of course
