Fernando Alonso, the best starter in Formula 1 Grand Prix history. Here is my top 10 of his best starts. Enjoy ! This footage belong to Formula One Management (FOM).
He doesn't have a crystal ball... McLaren was the best car, he underestimated how biased the English can be when they have an English driver. Ferrari was a championship contender when he joined in, and he almost won two titles with inferior cars. And Honda announced their intent to return when the regulations called for gas V8 engines... the hybrid spec was a lobby play by Mercedes which caught them unprepared.
Man I really like and appreciate Fernando, but we have some serious young talent on the grid right now, wait till 2022 season and hopefully small gaps between cars and then we can decide.
Thats a stupid comment that makes no sense. There are so many variables it all depends how that car is built which will determine rhe best driver. Equal car debate is stupid
My top 3 of all time easily. Drags cars to places they never should be. Some of the ferrari's he drove were the 4th or 5th fastest cars on the grid and he almost won a world championship
Si re ma fino ad un certo punto poiché ad esempio in qualifica per ciò fatto nella sua carriera non ha nulla a che veder con ciò fatto da un Senna;Schumacher;Hamilton pure in gara anche se un po' meno ed anche se li probabilmente si era il più bravo ciò non lo rende come almeno quei tre per me anche se senza ombra di dubbio è stato e ancora è un campionissimo.
@@user-ln3fc4ig5g I hope your comment is sarcastic. Renault had good traccion, but that's not the main factor. Alonso has a lot of insane starts, in different teams. He is the differential factor. His teammates also did so brutal starts?
@@josemanuelcr7474 So no, I'm not sarcastic, I love Alonso, but I made it clear with Renault and if it's the main factor your case look at the second Renault. Moreover, everyone knows that Renault's system was incredible compared to others
Indeed. 2005 and 2006 Renault was known for starting good. Fisichella had good starts too. But Alonso does good starts with almost every car he has driven!
Talked mad shit about Honda to the point they will never deal with him again. helped spread stolen Ferrari car info ,black mailed mcleran tried to hide it , super toxic person.
@@_Ruach_ Lewis would have won if McLaren didn't favour him which resulted in Alonso fighting him too hard. Still if McLaren didn't favour anyone, Alonso would've won imo.
Underrated? Pfft if anything overrated, toxic person behind the scenes with some of the most foolish fanboys. He took a seat which should have went to more deserving if not better drivers such as Nico Hulkenberg. It's time for the future not prickish old vets, he reminds me a lot of Jacques Villeneuve.
In my opinion, he's genuenly the BEST driver on the grid as of now, and is getting absolutely slept on, even tho he's getting lots of attention, I think he deserves way more. His race pace is flawless. His starts are still the best on the grid. He makes absoluetly NO mistakes. I think it's obvious. This man has still got it ALL, and needs more chances.
At Singapore 2017, he did the exact same start with Singapore 2013, going from P7 to P3 until he got collected from Kimi and Max. And all that in a McLaren with a GP2 engine Honda
Shouldn't have put the 2004 one for two reasons - 1. Launch control, 2. Renault were monitoring the sensor on the grid that was measuring for false start. It turned out that the sensor's voltage goes up by 2V when the lights go green. Clever, if not genius stuff, yet illegal and unfair as it had nothing to do with ability (which Alonso has plenty).
0:30 at the time the Michelins had a very good grip and the reunault had a good acceleration if you combine all this with its reaction time it can only make a good start
before 2006 V8 era, renault paired a 6speed transmission with their V10 engine unlike the 7 speeds from other PU manufacture, this give a slight advantage for the race start acceleration and a disadvantage for top speed, Alonso always maximise the advantage of his car
I mean, Alonso might not have the ultimate one-lap pace out of all the drivers (which is still debatable since car performance plays such a ridiculously huge part in F1), you can't deny he's still probably the most all-rounded driver.
Alonso is not the fastest on qualifying, but he is still top 5 of this century on that aspect. Remember he outqualified Massa, Raikkonnen, Trulli (known as a great qualifier) when fernando was just a kid, and Button. Raikkonen is known one of the fastest drivers, but he still has less poles than fernando having even more fast cars than Alonso. Only Kimi in McLaren, Lewis, Max and Charles are a bit better, while fernando is clearly better than Leclerc and Kimi and probably better than Max and Lewis on sundays. I rate him as good as vettel in qualifying.
@@Mr-je2jr i understood but May be...but I don t know... There are some pilots that I haven't the knowledge so Deep..for sure for me Is Better than lewis. I Watch F1 from 1990.
And people say he's not good just because hamboy beat him in his first season. So what being beaten, what has he done the following years? That's right, beat hamboy over and over both with competitive cars. Now ask yourself if he was at Mercs instead of Rosberg it would have been different.
Wasnt beat... the only winner that season was Kimi Raikkonen Fighting against a british biased team made me admire him forever, no other pilot had balls of steel to do that since then.
@@delusion2987 I understand that, my comment was simply to say to the haters that Alonso is not thrash compared to ham just because of 2007. In 2012 Alonso had people crashing into him as well, Spa and Suzuka that year costed him WDC, each of these races he would have finished (if no dnf) P2-P5 surely.

That's cool, but what about all those examples in McLaren or Ferrari? Or even Alpine if you watched Sprint Qualy this season. Why is so hard to give a respect when drivers deserve it?
Well, you guys have to see Ayrton Senna vs Prost vs Mansel races! Senna did things without a car, without an engine, without a gear! and made the first longest lap in F1 history

His only mistake in his career: not to choose the right teams in the right moment
Mercedes-Benz

@@oaz8 it takes years even for a Factory team to bé UP front. He and ocon are doing great!!!
he,s been world champion no? Not good enough?
Actually not his fault, pure luck😣
Put everyone in equal cars… I would pick Alonso over any driver in the past 15 years.
Man I really like and appreciate Fernando, but we have some serious young talent on the grid right now, wait till 2022 season and hopefully small gaps between cars and then we can decide.

2007
Kubika
My top 3 of all time easily. Drags cars to places they never should be. Some of the ferrari's he drove were the 4th or 5th fastest cars on the grid and he almost won a world championship
That one in Spain from 4th is absolutely mega. Inch perfect without contact behind both Red Bulls.
Specially because he had a much slower car that day, he finished lapped in 5th position.
@@R0bY28 Because Ferrari were struggling with the new hard compound introduced that day
my favorite is the one from indianapolis 2004, getting two cars on the outside, beautiful
They're all fantastic, but yes, Spain 2011 was his best start ever. Next level stuff.
Alonso looks like us playing F1 games trying to pass everyone in the first turn
Except he does it without crashing
He has CPU in easy mode
Fernando needs a podium in 2021. At least one, please!!
Don't worry, he has proven many things without be in a podium.
@@davidsantiagohernandezsilv5905 that’s true!!
he just got one in qatar!!!

With the Renault, it's normal. We immediately see the advantage of the Renault system, but I love this driver without forgetting ALO>HAM

His starts from 2008 onwards is even more amazing considering the lack of traction control.
Indeed. 2005 and 2006 Renault was known for starting good. Fisichella had good starts too. But Alonso does good starts with almost every car he has driven!
Maybe the best starter in F1 EVER..........................Maybe the best driver ever!!!
bruh i can't even imagine alonso's dominance if he's in 2017/2018 ferrari or even a mercedes car
I'm watching these starts and just can't help myself smiling... what a driver!

That monza onboard where the wheels spun on the grass… some balls to keep it pinned there
Yooo who else got goosebumps from the fist onboard ? That sound, those actions, what a man, what an era !
Alonso is underrated, if McLaren didn't cheat, Alonso would've won atleast 2 more world championships. He's just extremely unlucky.
Lewis also wouldve fought I mean almost won 2007 stupid mclaren
But hopefully gets a chance next year for Alonso I mean
Lewis would have won if he doesn't has a engine failure.

@@delusion2987 In reality, it was almost always the car failing him. Tell me 2 races he's made a bigger mistake.
@@grivous9515 funny joke
@@the_redshire815 well he did last year while Alonso did the year before.
@@grivous9515 did what?
And remember... if Alonso had an amazing start then Webber had a horrible start.
Yeah the first clip always make me laugh. So typical of Webber to get a brilliant qualifying and then throw everything away at the start.
And Michael Schumacher :-)
@Nick Caryndra Well, while driving for RedBull he had also some very bad starts.
At least its not bad for a number 2 driver peace!
The curse of Webber
I remember that start at monza through the grass.. just impeccable
And that start at Montmeló OMG
Incredible, the man is a joy to watch.
God of starts
He would be a 10 time world champion if he'd got that Mercedes seat in 2013 instead of Hamilton.
Cry about it
@@AZBCDEE Abu Dhabi, cry about it.
@@AZBCDEE 2021 cry about it
The truth is that he didn't need the best car. He need a car and a team to compit. A litle bit better than he was in ferrari.
At Singapore 2017, he did the exact same start with Singapore 2013, going from P7 to P3 until he got collected from Kimi and Max. And all that in a McLaren with a GP2 engine Honda
This man is my king.
Forever.
That launch control and traction of the R23 and R24 was amazing
Gotta love how he had great starts in Ferrari and that absolute shitbox of a McLaren thanks to the launch control of the R23
Salidas y carreras de Alonso + comentarios de Antonio Lobato = lo mejor del mundo 🥰😍
Without a doubt Fernando Alonso the best Driver in any car. Definitivamente el mejor piloto de la historia. Sin duda alguna.
Ocon is better

Here after Alonso just got P2 qualifying at Canada. Watching this before dreaming he jumps Verstappen at the start today😬
i guarantee he will pass max at turn 1
@@followchadism3594 he did not
He starts as if he is flying a rocket 🚀 .. unbelievable skill
The best!
Hearing Lobato narrate Alonso is always magical
The way Fernando is able to carry momentum for so long is just insane
Perhaps Hungary 2006 should be on the list as well?
Although that might be classified as a fantastic first lap, and not just a start.
Alonso is the besr drivers in my heart! keep push guys!
Es de otro planeta👏👏👏
Ay Alonso qué buenos momentos y encima lo podíamos ver por la tele
That 2004 US start was unreal
Is not unreal, is magic
Malaysia 06 as well
El puto amo!
Another one ☝🏽.
Another big start for Fernando Alonso at the French GP he’s a legend 🫶🏾
Watching these old clips really makes me miss James Allen so much. He is such an enthusiastic commentator.
you should have used the spanish narrators for all the stars, they get so hyped
Hey, I can't find them for all the clips unfortunately...

The Nickname of ''MAGIC'' is perfect to Alonso.
brillant!
hes also the best in wheel to wheel action
It would be so interesting to see him in a competetive car. I think he would give. Lewis and Max , at least , a good fight.
Excelente! A real driver neve spreads around the turn. Alonso the Best of times
Its painful to see Alonso since there is less than 10 points that separate Alonso from being a 5 time world Champion.
3 without the best car and team. Theres no discusion about him. Let's enjoy him..
Una gran injusticia que este hombre no tenga 5 mundiales🏆🏆
Don't forget that in the period 2004-2006 Renault had the best launch control system by far. Specially in 2004 it was impressive.
Cry
Where the hell is sprint race Silverstone 2021 ?!?!?
Renault cars of this era are still the most beautiful to date imo. Those outstanding colors ..
0:30 at the time the Michelins had a very good grip and the reunault had a good acceleration if you combine all this with its reaction time it can only make a good start
He think so fast, and he is more intelligent than any other driver ever. Maybe Prost could match him.
This video made me cry😪
before 2006 V8 era, renault paired a 6speed transmission with their V10 engine unlike the 7 speeds from other PU manufacture, this give a slight advantage for the race start acceleration and a disadvantage for top speed, Alonso always maximise the advantage of his car
3:12 flashbacks😭
Alonso is always my all time most favouris driver xD !
He's got some stones!
Ci manchi Fernando 💖
Gotta love the sound of Alonso's Renault in 2005-6 that engine is the RS25 a 3 litre 72 degree V10
Alonso is the GOAT. And he has 9 World Championships in my book
Y’all gotta listen Spain start 2013 in Spanish ♥️
Great video man, thanks!

Also Leclerc start on Russia was brilliant, from p20 to 12 in One straight. And leave a Red bull and Mercedes in theyr start position
One of best f1 pilot ever for sure in the first ten!
