The roars of the engines will resound again at the Circuit de Montmeló. This is one of the most anticipated tests of the Formula 1 World Cup, since the Spanish drivers play at home. The fans have turned to Carlos Sainz and Fernando Alonso, who hope to celebrate a victory at home.
After a thrilling Monaco GP that saw Max Verstappen cross the finish line first and establish himself as the World Championship leader, the drivers are ready to put on another adrenaline-pumping show in Barcelona. In the last race, Alonso finished second in Monaco, and both he and his team, Aston Martin, are hoping to step up to their first win of the season, which would be the expected 33rd.
Fernando Alonso is currently in third place in the overall drivers’ standings and is closely following Checo Pérez, who with his Red Bull continues to be at a higher level than the rest. For his part, Carlos Sainz, who occupies sixth place in the standings, has as a minimum goal to reach the podium in the Spanish GP, which takes place over 66 laps.
And it seems that the Ferrari driver has a good chance of finishing in the top three. Sainz will start from the front row together with Verstappen, who has taken pole position. For his part, Alonso will start from ninth position, so he will have to fight hard to be among the best.
The Montmeló Grand Prix, the eighth Formula 1 2023 race, will take place today, Sunday, June 4, at 3:00 p.m. It can be followed live on television from the DAZN and Telecinco channels, as well as the last hour of the race in real time from the La Vanguardia website.
