Fernando Alonso signals possible retirement after 2027 Barcelona Grand Prix

Two‑time Formula 1 champion Fernando Alonso, who turns 45 in July, told the press that the upcoming Barcelona race could be his final Grand Prix. He said his Aston Martin contract expires at the end of the season and that he will decide after the summer whether to continue.

Alonso reflected on his career, noting that his last victory came in 2013 with Ferrari and that his current season has been “catastrophic”. Rumours also link him to a potential move to Alpine, but he emphasized that his primary concern is feeling competitive behind the wheel.
