F1 | McLaren, Alonso cautious about new updates: "It doesn't mean we will catch up"

Fresh from winning the 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps, the first stage of the WEC Super Season, Fernando Alonso has once again projected himself onto Formula 1. In particular at the next round in Spain, where McLaren, as announced in recent weeks, will bring some significant updates: “A new aerodynamic package will arrive in Barcelona, ​​but I think 95% of the paddock will bring it” – explained to Motorsport.com the Spaniard, always with his feet firmly planted on the ground. "So, maybe the gap will stay as it is, or we will catch up or lose some ground. Who knows? I think it's up to us to make that package work as expected. Then let's hope that the others don't do well. This is our hope.".

Even the sports director Eric boullier he avoided flights of fancy, following the same line as Alonso: “Starting from Barcelona perhaps we will take a new direction. But you can't expect, as Fernando said, to overtake everyone. Everyone will bring a new package, especially for the first European races. Then there will be updates in Monaco, as well as in Canada and also at Silverstone. It will be like this in every race".
